Medicare is a form of health care insurance created by the U.S. government for senior citizens, along with people who have specific disabilities and sicknesses. If someone who has Medicare needs rehabilitation for instances of drug or alcohol abuse, their rehab will either be covered fully by their Medicare insurance or to a significant extent. The only catch is, the person will need to receive treatment from an alcohol and drugs detox facility which accepts Medicare. Before the person will be permitted to begin treatment, they can also get to see their primary care physician who must declare that treatment services are medically necessary, and the physician will generally approve which kind of rehab the person will do. Medicare Part An and Part B cover different types of rehab providers. Part A covers an inpatient stay in a Medicare accepted center when the individual should be hospitalized for their problem, along with the costs which they willwill have to cover personally are the same as every other hospital stay. Medicare Part B will partly cover outpatient treatment inside a Medicare accepted facility, and the individual will have to cover whatever Part B doesn't cover with supplement insurance or they're going to have to self pay.
