Medicare is a sort of health care insurance created by the federal government for senior citizens, along with those that have certain disabilities and sicknesses. If someone that has Medicare needs rehabilitation for instances of substance abuse, their rehab will be either covered fully by their Medicare insurance or to a significant degree. The only real catch is, the individual must receive treatment from your drug rehab facility which accepts Medicare. Before the individual will be allowed to begin rehabilitation, they will also have to visit their physician who must state that rehab services are medically needed, and the doctor will typically approve what sort of treatment the person will take part in. Medicare Part An and Part B cover different types of treatment providers. Medicare Part A pays for an inpatient stay in a Medicare accepted facility when the individual should be hospitalized because of their issue, as well as the costs which they willwill have to cover personally are identical to every other stay in a hospital. Medicare Part B will partially cover outpatient rehab in the Medicare accepted program, and the individual will have to cover whatever Medicare Part B doesn't pay for with supplemental insurance coverage or they're going to have to self pay.
