Medicare is a kind of medical health insurance created by the U.S. government for older persons, and also people who have specific disabilities and diseases. If someone that has Medicare needs rehabilitation for cases of drug or alcohol abuse, their rehab will either be covered entirely by their Medicare insurance or to a great extent. The only catch is, the individual will need to obtain treatment from a drug rehab facility which accepts Medicare. Before the person will be permitted to commence rehab, they may also have to see their primary care physician who must declare that rehabilitation services are medically needed, and the physician will usually approve what type of rehab the person will do. Medicare Part An and Part B cover various kinds of rehabilitation providers. Medicare Part A pays for an inpatient stay in a Medicare accepted center if the individual needs to be in a hospital because of their problem, as well as the costs which they willwill have to cover personally are identical to every other hospital stay. Part B will partly cover outpatient treatment in a Medicare accepted center, and the individual will need to cover whatever Part B doesn't cover with supplemental insurance coverage or they will have to self pay.
