Medicare is a form of medical insurance designed by the federal government for senior citizens, and also people who have specific disabilities and diseases. If a person who has Medicare needs rehab for cases of drug or alcohol abuse, their treatment will be either covered entirely by their Medicare health insurance or to a significant degree. The only real exception is, the individual will have to receive treatment from the drug rehab facility which accepts Medicare. Before the person will be permitted to begin rehabilitation, they can also get to see their primary care physician who must declare that rehab services are medically essential, and the physician will usually approve what sort of treatment the individual will do. Medicare Part An and Part B cover different types of rehabilitation services. Medicare Part A covers an inpatient stay in a Medicare accepted facility if the individual has to be in a hospital for issue, along with the costs which they willwill have to cover personally are the same as every other stay in a hospital. Medicare Part B will partly cover outpatient rehabilitation inside a Medicare accepted program, and the individual will need to cover whatever Medicare Part B doesn't cover with supplement insurance or they've got to self pay.
