Medicare is a sort of medical insurance designed by the U.S. government for seniors, as well as those that have specific disabilities and sicknesses. If a person who has Medicare needs treatment for instances of drug or alcohol abuse, their rehab will be either covered entirely by their Medicare health insurance or to a great degree. The only catch is, the person must acquire treatment from an alcohol and drugs detox facility which accepts Medicare. Before the person will be allowed to begin rehab, they can also get to visit their physician who must declare that treatment services are medically needed, and the doctor will usually approve which kind of rehab the person will do. Medicare Part An and Part B cover different types of treatment providers. Part A covers an inpatient stay in a Medicare accepted program when the individual must be in a hospital because of their issue, and also the costs that they will have to cover personally are the same as any other hospital stay. Part B will partly cover outpatient rehab within a 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.
