Medicare is a kind of medical health insurance created by the government for older persons, as well as people with certain disabilities and sicknesses. If an individual who has Medicare needs treatment for cases of drug or alcohol abuse, their rehab will be either covered completely by their Medicare health insurance or to a great degree. The one catch is, the person must obtain treatment from a drug rehab facility which accepts Medicare. Before the person will be permitted to commence treatment, they can also get to see their medical doctor who must declare that rehab services are medically needed, and the doctor will usually approve what sort of rehab the person will do. Medicare Part An and Part B cover several types of rehabilitation solutions. Part A pays for an inpatient stay in a Medicare accepted facility when the individual has to be hospitalized for their issue, along with the costs that they will have to cover personally are the same as any other hospital stay. Medicare Part B will partly cover outpatient rehabilitation in a Medicare accepted facility, and the individual will need to cover whatever Medicare Part B doesn't pay for with supplement insurance or they'll have to self pay.
