Medicare is a type of health care insurance developed by the federal government for seniors, as well as people who have specific disabilities and sicknesses. If a person that has Medicare needs treatment for instances of drug or alcohol abuse, their rehab will either be covered entirely by their Medicare health insurance or to a significant extent. The one exception is, the person will need to receive treatment from an alcohol and drugs detox facility which accepts Medicare. Before the person will be permitted to begin rehab, they can also get to visit their physician who must declare that rehabilitation 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 treatment providers. Medicare Part A pays for an inpatient stay in a Medicare accepted center when the individual needs to be hospitalized for their problem, as well as the costs which they willwill have to pay for personally are identical to every other hospital stay. Medicare Part B will partly cover outpatient rehab within a Medicare accepted facility, and the individual will need to cover whatever Part B doesn't pay for with supplement insurance or they're going to have to self pay.
