Medicare is a sort of medical insurance developed by the federal government for older persons, along with individuals with specific disabilities and diseases. If someone who has Medicare needs treatment for cases of substance abuse, their rehab will either be covered in full by their Medicare health insurance or to a significant degree. The only catch is, the individual will have to receive treatment from a drug rehab facility which accepts Medicare. Before the individual will be allowed to begin rehabilitation, they can also get to see their primary care physician who must declare that rehab services are medically needed, and the physician will typically approve what sort of rehab the person will take part in. Medicare Part An and Part B cover various kinds of treatment providers. Medicare Part A covers an inpatient stay in a Medicare accepted center if the individual needs to be hospitalized for his or her issue, and also the costs that they will have to cover personally are the same as every other hospital stay. Part B will partially cover outpatient rehab within a Medicare accepted center, and the individual will have to cover whatever Medicare Part B doesn't cover with supplemental insurance or they've got to self pay.
