Medicare is a form of medical insurance developed by the U.S. government for senior citizens, as well as those that have certain disabilities and sicknesses. If an individual who has Medicare needs rehabilitation for instances of drug or alcohol abuse, their treatment will either be covered completely by their Medicare health insurance or to a significant degree. The only real exception is, the individual must acquire treatment from your drug rehab facility which accepts Medicare. Before the person will be permitted to commence rehab, they can also get to see their physician who must state that rehabilitation services are medically needed, and the doctor will typically approve what type of rehab the person will take part in. Medicare Part An and Part B cover a variety of rehabilitation solutions. Medicare Part A pays for an inpatient stay in a Medicare accepted facility in the event that the individual should be in a hospital because of their issue, as well as the costs that they will have to cover personally are the same as every other hospital stay. Part B will partly cover outpatient rehabilitation in the Medicare accepted facility, and the individual will need to cover whatever Medicare Part B doesn't cover with supplemental insurance or they've got to self pay.
