Sliding Fee Scale - Alcohol and Drug Rehabilitation Centers - Downs, IL.

One form of payment assistance that some drug rehab programs may give to their clients is a sliding fee scale. If a client can provide some degree of self-payment, these centers provide assistance on a case-by-case basis that can greatly reduce rehab costs so that it is affordable for that particular individual. This typically works like this: the individual will need to satisfy certain requirements for payment assistance, 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 information admissions administrators can determine what that client will need to pay, using a sliding scale.

As an example, if someone in Downs only earns $18,000 a year, has 3 dependent children they are supporting and $800 in monthly bills they may only need to pay $1000 for treatment, whereas a person who has no family and makes $30,000/year with no overhead must pay much more.

Even in cases where sliding payment scales are offered, people 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 paid until after the person finishes rehab.
