Medicare is a type of health care insurance created by the government for seniors, and also people who have certain disabilities and diseases. If someone who has Medicare needs rehabilitation for cases of substance abuse, their rehabilitation will be either covered entirely by their Medicare health insurance or to a great extent. The only real catch is, the individual will have to receive treatment from the drug rehab facility which accepts Medicare. Before the individual will be permitted to commence treatment, they can also get to see their primary care physician who must state that rehabilitation services are medically essential, and the physician will usually approve which kind of rehabilitation the individual will do. Medicare Part An and Part B cover a variety of treatment services. Part A covers an inpatient stay in a Medicare accepted program in the event that the individual must be hospitalized because of their issue, and the costs which they willwill have to cover personally are identical to any other hospital stay. Part B will partly cover outpatient rehabilitation within a Medicare accepted center, and the individual will need to cover whatever Part B doesn't pay for with supplemental insurance coverage or they'll have to self pay.
