About Medicare

Medicare is the federal health insurance for people 65 and older and some younger people with disabilities or certain conditions. Original Medicare (Parts A and B) and Medicare Advantage plans cover addiction treatment differently, and a program has to be enrolled with Medicare.

What Medicare usually covers, by level of care

Levels of care

Addiction treatment runs from detox and residential care, where you stay at the program, to PHP, IOP and outpatient counseling, where you live at home. Medication for addiction (MAT) can go with any of them. See IOP vs PHP vs outpatient care.

Ask the program whether it accepts Medicare assignment for this level of care. With a Medicare Advantage plan, call the plan too: it has its own network.

Call a program and ask

Call the program and ask them to verify your benefits; it's free and takes a few minutes.

Do you accept Medicare for substance use treatment, and for which levels of care?
Are you in network for my exact plan, and is prior authorization needed?
What would I pay a day or a week, and when is the next opening for an assessment?

Call the program yourself: Find Care doesn't take your insurance details, collect your name or pass anything to a program for you. This is general information, not a guarantee of coverage. What your plan pays depends on your plan, your state, whether the program is in network, and whether your plan decides the care is medically necessary. Call the number on your card, then the program, before you start.
