Sliding Fee Scale - Alcohol and Drug Treatment Programs - Tenakee Springs, AK.

A type of payment assistance that some alcohol and drug treatment programs may offer their clients is an adjustable fee scale. If an individual can provide any deposit or payment by themselves, these programs 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. How this typically works is the person will have to satisfy certain requirements for payment help and will have to provide information about how many dependents they have, proof of income, what their household overhead is, and the like. Based off this family and financial information admissions administrators can determine what that client will need to pay, using a sliding scale.

As an example, if an individual in Tenakee Springs only earns $18K a year, has 3 children and 800 dollars in monthly bills they may only need to pay $1000 for treatment, whereas a person who has no family and makes $30,000 a year with no overhead will pay much more.

Even when sliding payment scales are available, clients may need to seek additional assistance to afford the discounted fee. Intake staff can help individuals or family who are footing the bill 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.
