Medicare covers treatment for alcoholism and substance use. Treatment is covered if your provider states that the services are medically necessary and you receive services from a Medicare-approved provider or facility. Some of the covered services through Medicare include patient education, post-hospitalization, opioid treatment programs, substance use counseling, individual and group therapy, or peer support. Inpatient care and outpatient care would also be covered, but you should speak with your Medicare provider to ensure what is covered. When searching for a drug rehab program covered through Medicare, it is essential to choose a program that will meet treatment needs.
