Medicare is a kind of medical health insurance created by the government for older persons, along with people with certain disabilities and sicknesses. If someone that has Medicare needs rehabilitation for instances of substance abuse, their rehab will either be covered fully by their Medicare insurance or to a great extent. The one catch is, the person will have to obtain treatment from your drug rehab facility which accepts Medicare. Before the person will be allowed to commence rehabilitation, they can also get to see their physician who must state that rehabilitation services are medically essential, and the physician will generally approve what type of rehabilitation the individual will do. Medicare Part An and Part B cover several types of rehabilitation providers. Part A pays for an inpatient stay in a Medicare accepted facility in the event that the individual needs to be hospitalized for their problem, as well as the costs which they willwill have to cover personally are the same as every other hospital stay. Part B will partially cover outpatient rehab in the Medicare accepted facility, and the individual will need to cover whatever Medicare Part B doesn't cover with supplement insurance or they will have to self pay.
