Through Medicare, senior adults in Fairplay who are having difficulties with addiction can take advantage of many drug rehab programs which are available through their benefits. A lot of outpatient programs around the Fairplay area are covered through Medicare, although seniors may find that Medicare covers any hospitalization needed in the course of drug rehabilitation such as an inpatient or residential center. Medicare covers a wide spectrum of treatment for alcohol and drug rehabilitation in Fairplay including therapy, education, followup plans, and other services as recommended by doctors while in rehabilitation. A type of treatment which Medicare coverage does not cover is methadone maintenance treatment plans for treatment of opiate addiction, so senior adults will need to find a drug and alcohol rehabilitation center covered by means of Medicare which treats opiate dependence through other methods. Senior adults with Medicare can speak with their doctor or Medicare directly to determine which types of alcohol and drug rehabilitation programs are covered.
