Medicare is a sort of medical insurance designed by the federal government for older folks, along with people who have certain disabilities and illnesses. If a person who has Medicare needs treatment for instances of drug or alcohol abuse, their rehabilitation will be either covered fully by their Medicare insurance or to a great extent. The only real catch is, the person will have to obtain treatment from a drug rehab facility which accepts Medicare. Before the person will be allowed to begin rehab, they may also have to visit their physician who must declare that rehab services are medically needed, and the physician will usually approve which kind of treatment the individual will take part in. Medicare Part An and Part B cover several types of treatment providers. Part A covers an inpatient stay in a Medicare accepted center in the event that the individual should be in a hospital for problem, along with the costs that they will have to cover personally are identical to any other stay in a hospital. Medicare Part B will partially cover outpatient rehabilitation in a Medicare accepted center, and the individual will need to cover whatever Part B doesn't pay for with supplemental insurance or they've got to self pay.
