Medicare is a type of health care insurance designed by the U.S. government for seniors, along with individuals with certain disabilities and sicknesses. If someone that has Medicare needs treatment for cases of substance abuse, their rehabilitation will either be covered completely by their Medicare health insurance or to a great degree. The only catch is, the individual must receive treatment from the alcohol and drugs detox facility which accepts Medicare. Before the person will be permitted to begin rehab, they may also have to see their doctor who must state that rehabilitation services are medically needed, and the physician will usually approve which kind of rehabilitation the individual will take part in. Medicare Part An and Part B cover different types of treatment services. Medicare Part A pays for an inpatient stay in a Medicare accepted center in the event that the individual must be hospitalized for issue, as well as the costs which they willwill have to cover personally are identical to any other hospital stay. Part B will partially cover outpatient treatment within a Medicare accepted center, and the individual will need to cover whatever Part B doesn't cover with supplemental insurance coverage or they're going to have to self pay.
