AdCare Hospital Interviewed by PBS Newshour on Medicare and Addiction Treatment

Patrice Muchowski, head of clinical services at AdCare hospital, was interviewed for PBS Newshour’s Making Sen$e column. In this particular column, journalist Phil Moeller answered the questions of an individual seeking addiction treatment with coverage from Medicare and referred to Muchowski for answers.

In the situation presented in the article, the individual wanted to cease use of the benzodiazepine, Xanax. Muchowski adds that if their doctors went through the proper steps, it’s likely that Medicare would cover care.
