Medicare is a sort of medical health insurance created by the U.S. government for older persons, in addition to those that have certain disabilities and diseases. If someone that has Medicare needs rehabilitation for instances of drug or alcohol abuse, their rehabilitation will either be covered in full by their Medicare health insurance or to a significant extent. The only exception is, the person will need to obtain treatment from the drug rehab facility which accepts Medicare. Before the person will be permitted to start treatment, they can also get to see their primary care physician who must declare that rehab services are medically essential, and the physician will typically approve what sort of treatment the person will do. Medicare Part An and Part B cover several types of rehabilitation services. Medicare Part A covers an inpatient stay in a Medicare accepted center in the event that the individual needs to be hospitalized because of their issue, and also the costs which they willwill have to cover personally are the same as any other hospital stay. Medicare Part B will partially cover outpatient rehab in the Medicare accepted program, and the individual will need to cover whatever Part B doesn't pay for with supplemental insurance or they'll have to self pay.
