Sliding Fee Scale - Alcohol and Drug Treatment Centers - San Mateo, FL.

A kind of payment assistance that some substance abuse rehabilitation facilities may offer their clients is a sliding fee scale. If a client can afford any deposit or payment by themselves, these programs provide assistance on a case-by-case basis which can greatly reduce treatment costs so that it is affordable for that particular person. How this typically works is the person will need to satisfy certain 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 administrators can determine what that client will need to pay, using a sliding scale.

For example, if someone in San Mateo only makes $18K a year, has 3 children and $800 in monthly bills they may only need to pay $1000 for rehab, whereas someone who has no family and makes $30,000 a year with no overhead may need to pay much more.

Even in cases where sliding payment scales are offered, individuals may need to seek further financial help to pay the discounted fee. Admissions administrators can help clients or their loved ones who are paying for rehab apply for financing from a third party lender, and in mostcases this money doesn't need to be repaid until after the client finishes treatment.
