Sliding Fee Scale - Alcohol and Drug Rehabilitation Facilities - Arctic Village, AK.

A kind of payment assistance that some alcohol and drug treatment facilities may give to their clients is an adjustable fee scale. If a client can provide some degree of self-payment, these facilities provide assistance on a case-by-case basis that can greatly reduce the cost of treatment so that it is affordable for that particular client. This typically works like this: the individual will have to meet certain criteria and requirements for payment assistance, and will have to provide proof of income, information about how many dependents they have, what their household overhead is, etc. Based off this family and financial information admissions admins can determine what that client will need to pay, using a sliding scale.

As an example, if someone in Arctic Village only earns $18,000 a year, has 3 dependent children they are supporting and 800 dollars in monthly bills they may only need to pay $1000 for rehab, whereas a person who is single and makes $30,000/year with no overhead will pay much more.

Even when sliding fee scales are offered, people may need to seek additional financial help to afford the discounted amount. Intake admin can help people or family who are paying for treatment apply for financing from a third party lender, and in mostcases this money doesn't need to be repaid until after the individual completes treatment.
