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

One form of payment assistance that some substance abuse treatment centers may give to their clients is a sliding fee scale. If a client can afford any deposit or payment by themselves, these facilities provide help on a case by case basis that can greatly reduce treatment costs so that it is affordable for that particular client. This typically works like this: 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 intake admins can determine the cost to the client using a sliding scale.

As an example, if an individual in Glenwood makes $18,000 a year, has 3 dependent children they are supporting and $800 in monthly bills they may only need to pay $1000 for rehab, whereas a person who has no dependents and makes $30 a year with no overhead must pay $3000.

Even in cases where sliding fee scales are available, clients may need to seek further assistance to pay this discounted amount. Admissions staff 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 paid back until after the person completes treatment.
