Sliding Fee Scale - Alcohol and Drug Rehabilitation Programs - Smyrna, DE.

One form of payment help that some alcohol and drug treatment facilities may offer their clients is an adjustable fee scale. If an individual can afford some degree of self-payment, these centers provide help on a case-by-case basis that can lower treatment costs so that it can be afforded by that particular client. This typically works like this: the person will have to satisfy certain requirements for payment help 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.

For example, if a person in Smyrna only earns $18K a year, has 3 dependents and $800 in monthly bills they may only need to pay $1000 for rehab, whereas someone who has no family and makes $30 a year with no overhead must pay much more.

Even in cases where sliding fee scales are available, individuals may need to seek additional financial help to afford the lesser amount. Admissions staff can help clients or family who are footing the bill for treatment apply for financing from a third party lender, and in some cases this money doesn't need to be paid until after the person finishes treatment.
