Medicare

Medicare recipients can receive rehabilitation at drug and alcohol rehabilitation centers which deliver either inpatient or outpatient rehabilitation when the facility is in the network of Medicare-participating providers and with the consent of their Medicare appointed physician, who must help in establishing the person's treatment plan.
