Medicare is a sort of health care insurance developed by the U.S. government for older folks, in addition to people with certain disabilities and illnesses. If someone who has Medicare needs treatment for instances of drug or alcohol abuse, their rehabilitation will be either covered in full by their Medicare insurance or to a significant degree. The only real catch is, the individual must acquire treatment from the drug rehab facility which accepts Medicare. Before the individual will be permitted to begin treatment, they may also have to see their medical doctor who must state that rehabilitation services are medically necessary, and the physician will generally approve what sort of rehab the person will do. Medicare Part An and Part B cover a variety of treatment providers. Medicare Part A pays for an inpatient stay in a Medicare accepted facility if the individual needs to be in a hospital for his or her problem, along with the costs that they will have to cover personally are identical to every other hospital stay. Medicare Part B will partly cover outpatient rehab in a Medicare accepted center, and the individual will have to cover whatever Part B doesn't cover with supplement insurance or they've got to self pay.
