Medicare is a kind of health care insurance created by the U.S. government for seniors, as well as people who have specific disabilities and sicknesses. If a person who has Medicare needs treatment for cases of drug or alcohol abuse, their rehabilitation will be either covered fully by their Medicare health insurance or to a significant degree. The only catch is, the individual will need to acquire treatment from a drugs and alcohol detox facility which accepts Medicare. Before the person will be allowed to commence rehabilitation, they can also get to visit their doctor who must state that rehab services are medically needed, and the physician will usually approve what type of treatment the person will take part in. Medicare Part An and Part B cover a variety of rehabilitation services. Part A covers an inpatient stay in a Medicare accepted facility when the individual needs to be in a hospital for their problem, and also the costs that they will have to cover personally are identical to every other stay in a hospital. Part B will partially cover outpatient treatment in a Medicare accepted center, and the individual will need to cover whatever Part B doesn't cover with supplemental insurance or they've got to self pay.
