Sliding Fee Scale - Drug and Alcohol Treatment Facilities - Palos Heights, IL.

One form of payment assistance that some substance abuse rehabilitation facilities may give to their clients is a sliding fee scale. If an individual can afford any deposit or payment by themselves, these centers provide assistance on a case by case basis that can greatly reduce the cost of treatment so that it is affordable for that particular client. How this typically works is the individual 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 information admissions administrators can determine what that client will need to pay, using a sliding scale.

For example, if someone in Palos Heights makes $18,000/year, has 3 dependents and $800 in monthly bills they may only need to pay $1000 for treatment, whereas someone who has no family and makes $30,000/year with no overhead will pay $3000.

Even in cases where sliding fee scales are available, clients may need to seek additional assistance to pay the lesser amount. Intake administrators can help clients or their loved ones who are paying for treatment apply for financing from a third party lender, and in mostcases this money doesn't need to be paid until after the individual completes rehabilitation.
