Medicare is a kind of medical health insurance developed by the government for older folks, in addition to people with specific disabilities and diseases. When someone who has Medicare needs rehab for instances of drug or alcohol abuse, their rehab will either be covered completely by their Medicare insurance or to a significant extent. The only real catch is, the person will need to obtain treatment from a drug rehab facility which accepts Medicare. Before the individual will be allowed to begin rehabilitation, they may also have to visit their physician who must state that treatment services are medically essential, and the physician will usually approve which kind of rehabilitation the person will take part in. Medicare Part An and Part B cover several types of treatment providers. Part A pays for an inpatient stay in a Medicare accepted program when the individual should be hospitalized for their problem, and also the costs which they willwill have to cover personally are identical to every other stay in a hospital. Medicare Part B will partly cover outpatient treatment within a Medicare accepted facility, and the individual will need to cover whatever Medicare Part B doesn't pay for with supplement insurance or they're going to have to self pay.
