Medicare is a kind of medical insurance created by the government for older persons, as well as individuals with specific disabilities and diseases. If a person that has Medicare needs treatment for instances of drug or alcohol abuse, their treatment will be either covered in full by their Medicare health insurance or to a significant extent. The one catch is, the person must receive treatment from an alcohol and drugs detox facility which accepts Medicare. Before the individual will be allowed to begin rehab, they can also get to see their doctor who must state that rehabilitation services are medically essential, and the doctor will typically approve which kind of rehab the individual will take part in. Medicare Part An and Part B cover various kinds of rehabilitation solutions. Part A covers an inpatient stay in a Medicare accepted facility when the individual has to be in a hospital for his or her problem, along with the costs that they will have to cover personally are identical to any other hospital stay. Medicare Part B will partially cover outpatient rehabilitation within a Medicare accepted center, and the individual will need to cover whatever Part B doesn't cover with supplement insurance coverage or they will have to self pay.
