Medicare is a sort of medical insurance created by the federal government for older persons, in addition to people with specific disabilities and illnesses. If a person who has Medicare needs treatment for instances of drug or alcohol abuse, their rehabilitation will either be covered fully by their Medicare health insurance or to a great extent. The one catch is, the person will need to receive treatment from the drug rehab facility which accepts Medicare. Before the individual will be permitted to commence treatment, they can also get to see their primary care physician who must declare that treatment services are medically essential, and the doctor will typically approve what type of rehabilitation the person will do. Medicare Part An and Part B cover various kinds of treatment services. Part A pays for an inpatient stay in a Medicare accepted center in the event that the individual should be hospitalized for his or her problem, as well as the costs which they willwill have to cover personally are the same as any other stay in a hospital. Medicare Part B will partly cover outpatient rehabilitation within a Medicare accepted facility, and the individual will have to cover whatever Part B doesn't cover with supplement insurance or they will have to self pay.
