Medicare accepted drug rehabilitation programs accept this kind of health insurance that is provided exclusively to older Americans and people with particular disabilities and chronic diseases. There are a few different forms of Medicare, and the kind of treatment that's covered within a Medicare accepted drug and alcohol treatment center is determined by which type of Medicare someone is covered under. As an example, Medicare Part A covers inpatient alcohol and drug treatment facilities in the event the rehab client requires hospitalization to address their drug abuse issue. Individuals covered by Medicare Part A will be responsible for the standard cost they'd have to pay for any other hospital stay. Medicare Part B will partly cover outpatient rehabilitation in a Medicare accepted program, and whatever Medicare Part B doesn't cover the individual will need to pay for on their own or through some other type of supplemental insurance. Individuals who need rehab for substance abuse can't use their Medicare health coverage at just any facility, and they will need to seek out a Medicare accepted program unless they wish to self-pay for their rehabilitation. Medicare provides a summary of Medicare accepted treatment providers to make the job of locating a Medicare accepted center somewhat easier.
