Medicare is a kind of health insurance developed by the federal government for senior citizens, along with individuals with specific disabilities and sicknesses. If an individual who has Medicare needs treatment for instances of drug or alcohol abuse, their rehabilitation will be either covered fully by their Medicare insurance or to a significant extent. The only exception is, the person must acquire treatment from your alcohol and drugs rehab facility which accepts Medicare. Before the individual will be permitted to begin rehabilitation, they can also get to visit their physician who must declare that rehabilitation services are medically essential, and the doctor will usually approve what type of treatment the individual will do. Medicare Part An and Part B cover different types of rehabilitation providers. Part A pays for an inpatient stay in a Medicare accepted facility if the individual must be hospitalized for their issue, and also the costs that they will have to cover personally are identical to every other stay in a hospital. Medicare Part B will partly cover outpatient treatment in a Medicare accepted facility, and the individual will need to cover whatever Medicare Part B doesn't pay for with supplement insurance coverage or they will have to self pay.
