Sliding Fee Scale - Alcohol and Drug Rehab Facilities - New Athens, IL.

One form of payment help that some drug rehabilitation facilities may offer their clients is a sliding fee scale. If a client can provide some degree of self-payment, these centers provide help on an individual basis which can lower treatment costs so that it is affordable for that particular individual. How this typically works is the individual will have to meet certain criteria and requirements for payment help 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 admins can determine what that client will need to pay, using a sliding scale.

As an example, if someone in New Athens only makes $18,000 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 may need to pay $3000.

Even when sliding fee scales are available, people may need to seek additional assistance to afford this discounted fee. Intake staff can help clients or their loved ones 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 paid back until after the individual completes treatment.
