Through Medicare, senior adults in Kenedy who are having difficulties with addiction can avail themselves of many alcohol and drug treatment facilities which are available through their health coverage. Many outpatient programs around the Kenedy area provide services using Medicare, although seniors may find that Medicare covers any hospitalization necessary in the course of drug rehabilitation such as an inpatient or residential program. Medicare provides coverage for a full spectrum of services for drug and alcohol rehabilitation in Kenedy such as therapy, training, aftercare plans, and other services as recommended by medical professionals in the course of treatment. A type of treatment which Medicare coverage does not cover is methadone maintenance programs in the case of opiate addiction, so senior adults will be required to take part in a drug and alcohol rehab program covered through Medicare which treats opiate dependence through other means. Senior adults with Medicare can speak with their physician or their plan directly to differentiate which types of drug treatment programs are covered.
