  • Rates of marijuana use in the United States have escalated significantly in recent years with the annual prevalence of marijuana use in North America estimated at around 10.7% of the adult population aged 15-64.
  • The illicit diversion use of prescription drugs has increased dramatically since the 1990s and has been accompanied by increased emergency room visits, accidental poisonings, and drug rehab admissions for addiction.

Wilkes Barre, PA. - Medicare

Substance abuse and addiction affects every race, age and gender. For substance abusers that are 65 years or older, Medicare is an option to pay for some if not all of their drug rehabilitation. Medicare insurance will pay for the treatment of drug addiction or alcoholism in both outpatient and inpatient settings, as long as a few key points are addressed. The addict must receive treatment from a Medicare-participating facility or provider. The drug addicted person's doctor states that the drug or alcohol treatment is medically necessary and that the patient's doctor provides a specific recommended treatment plan. Additionally, Medicare will only cover a maximum of 190 days in a psychiatric hospital for the individual's entire lifetime.
