Sliding Fee Scale - Alcohol and Drug Rehabilitation Facilities - Ohio, IL.

A type of payment assistance that some drug treatment centers may give to their clients is a sliding fee scale. If an individual can provide some degree of self-payment, these facilities provide financial aid on a case-by-case basis which can lower the cost of treatment so that it can be afforded by that particular individual. How this typically works is the client will need to satisfy certain 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 administrators can determine the cost to the client using a sliding scale.

For example, if a person in Ohio makes $18K a year, has 3 dependents and $800 in monthly bills they may only need to pay $1000 for treatment, whereas a person who has no dependents and makes $30 a year with no overhead will pay much more.

Even in cases where sliding payment scales are available, clients may need to seek further financial help to afford this lesser amount. Admissions staff can help clients or family who are paying for rehab apply for financing from a third party lender, and in some cases this money doesn't need to be paid until after the person completes rehab.
