Medicare is a sort of health insurance designed by the U.S. government for senior citizens, and also those that have certain disabilities and illnesses. If someone who has Medicare needs rehab for instances of substance abuse, their treatment will be either covered fully by their Medicare insurance or to a significant degree. The one exception is, the person will need to obtain treatment from your drug rehab facility which accepts Medicare. Before the individual will be allowed to start treatment, they can also get to visit their primary care physician who must state that treatment services are medically necessary, and the doctor will typically approve which kind of rehab the person will do. Medicare Part An and Part B cover various kinds of treatment providers. Medicare Part A covers an inpatient stay in a Medicare accepted facility if the individual should be in a hospital for problem, as well as the costs that they will have to cover personally are identical to any other hospital stay. Part B will partially cover outpatient treatment in the Medicare accepted center, and the individual will need to cover whatever Medicare Part B doesn't cover with supplement insurance or they'll have to self pay.
