Sliding Fee Scale - Alcohol and Drug Rehab Centers - Astoria, IL.

A kind of payment help that some substance abuse treatment programs can offer their clients is a sliding 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 can be afforded by that particular client. How this typically works is the person will need 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 the cost to the client using a sliding scale.

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

Even when sliding payment scales are available, clients may need to seek further assistance to pay this lesser amount. Intake administrators can help people or their loved ones 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 client finishes rehab.
