Medicare is a form of medical insurance designed by the U.S. government for older persons, as well as individuals with specific disabilities and diseases. 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 health insurance or to a significant extent. The only exception is, the person must acquire treatment from a drug rehab facility which accepts Medicare. Before the individual will be allowed to begin rehab, they can also get to visit their physician who must declare that rehabilitation services are medically necessary, and the physician will usually approve what type of rehabilitation the individual will do. Medicare Part An and Part B cover several types of rehabilitation solutions. Part A pays for an inpatient stay in a Medicare accepted facility in the event that the individual should be hospitalized because of their issue, and also the costs that they will have to pay for personally are identical to every other hospital stay. Part B will partly cover outpatient treatment within a Medicare accepted center, and the individual will need to cover whatever Part B doesn't pay for with supplement insurance or they'll have to self pay.
