Medicare is a form of medical insurance created by the U.S. government for senior citizens, as well as people with specific disabilities and sicknesses. When someone that has Medicare needs rehab for instances of drug or alcohol abuse, their rehab will either be covered completely by their Medicare insurance or to a great degree. The one catch is, the individual will need to acquire treatment coming from a drug rehab facility which accepts Medicare. Before the individual will be permitted to commence rehab, they will also have to see their physician who must declare that rehab services are medically essential, and the physician will usually approve which kind of treatment the person will take part in. Medicare Part An and Part B cover different types of rehabilitation services. Part A pays for an inpatient stay in a Medicare accepted facility in the event that the individual must be in a hospital for his or her issue, and also the costs which they willwill have to cover personally are the same as any other stay in a hospital. Part B will partially cover outpatient treatment in a Medicare accepted program, and the individual will need to cover whatever Part B doesn't pay for with supplemental insurance coverage or they're going to have to self pay.
