Medicare is a type of medical health insurance created by the government for older folks, in addition to people who have certain disabilities and diseases. If someone that has Medicare needs rehabilitation for cases of drug or alcohol abuse, their rehabilitation will either be covered in full by their Medicare insurance or to a significant extent. The only catch is, the individual will have to obtain treatment from the alcohol and drugs rehab facility which accepts Medicare. Before the individual will be allowed to begin treatment, they may also have to see their primary care physician who must declare that rehab services are medically necessary, and the doctor will typically approve what type of rehab the individual will do. Medicare Part An and Part B cover various kinds of rehab solutions. Part A covers an inpatient stay in a Medicare accepted facility if the individual must be hospitalized for their issue, and the costs which they willwill have to cover personally are the same as every other hospital stay. Part B will partially cover outpatient rehabilitation inside 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.
