Sliding Fee Scale - Alcohol and Drug Treatment Programs - Fidelity, IL.

A type of payment assistance that some substance abuse treatment facilities can give to their clients is an adjustable fee scale. If a client can provide some degree of self-payment, these facilities provide assistance on a case by case basis which can greatly reduce treatment costs so that it is affordable for that particular client. How this typically works is the individual will need to meet certain criteria and 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 information admissions admins can determine the cost to the client using a sliding scale.

As an example, if an individual in Fidelity makes $18K a year, has 3 dependents and 800 dollars in monthly bills they may only need to pay $1000 for treatment, whereas a person who has no family and makes $30,000 a year with no overhead must pay $3000.

Even when sliding fee scales are available, clients may need to seek further financial help to afford the discounted fee. Admissions administrators can help clients or family who are footing the bill for rehab apply for financing from a third party lender, and in some cases this money doesn't need to be repaid until after the client completes treatment.
