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

A kind of payment help that some drug and alcohol treatment facilities can offer their clients is a sliding fee scale. If an individual can provide some degree of self-payment, these centers provide help on a case by case basis that can lower treatment costs so that it can be afforded by that particular client. This typically works like this: the person 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 family and financial information admissions administrators can determine what that client will need to pay, using a sliding scale.

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

Even in cases where sliding fee scales are available, clients may need to seek further financial help to afford the lesser amount. Admissions staff can help clients or their loved ones who are footing the bill for treatment apply for financing from a third party lender, and in some cases this money doesn't need to be paid back until after the person completes rehabilitation.
