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

A type of payment assistance that some substance abuse rehab facilities may offer their clients is a sliding fee scale. If an individual can provide any deposit or payment by themselves, these centers provide assistance on a case by case basis that can greatly reduce treatment costs so that it can be afforded by that particular person. 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 administrators can determine what that client will need to pay, using a sliding scale.

For example, if someone in Elizabeth only earns $18,000 a year, has 3 children and $800 in monthly bills they may only need to pay $1000 for rehab, whereas an individual who is single and makes $30,000 a year with no overhead must pay $3000.

Even in cases where sliding payment scales are available, people may need to seek additional financial help to pay the lesser fee. Intake admin can help individuals 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 person completes rehab.
