Sliding Fee Scale - Drug and Alcohol Treatment Centers - Lake Forest, IL.

One form of payment assistance that some drug and alcohol rehab centers may give to their clients is a sliding fee scale. If an individual can provide some degree of self-payment, 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. How this typically works is the client will need to meet certain criteria and 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 information admissions administrators can determine what that client will need to pay, using a sliding scale.

For example, if someone in Lake Forest only earns $18,000/year, has 3 dependent children they are supporting and $800 in monthly bills they may only need to pay $1000 for treatment, whereas someone who is single and makes $30,000/year with no overhead will pay $3000.

Even when sliding payment scales are available, clients may need to seek further assistance to pay this lesser amount. Admissions admin can help people 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 rehab.
