Medicare is a sort of health insurance designed by the government for older persons, as well as people who have specific disabilities and diseases. If someone that has Medicare needs rehabilitation for cases of substance abuse, their treatment will either be covered fully by their Medicare insurance or to a significant extent. The one catch is, the individual must receive treatment from a drug rehab facility which accepts Medicare. Before the individual will be allowed to commence rehabilitation, they may also have to see their primary care physician who must state that rehabilitation services are medically needed, and the doctor will generally approve which kind of treatment the person will do. Medicare Part An and Part B cover several types of rehab solutions. Part A pays for an inpatient stay in a Medicare accepted facility when the individual should be in a hospital for problem, along with the costs that they will have to pay for personally are the same as every other hospital stay. Part B will partly cover outpatient rehabilitation in a Medicare accepted center, and the individual will have to cover whatever Medicare Part B doesn't cover with supplemental insurance or they're going to have to self pay.
