Sliding Fee Scale - Drug and Alcohol Treatment Programs - Park Forest, IL.

A type of payment assistance that some substance abuse rehabilitation facilities may offer their clients is a sliding fee scale. If an individual can provide any deposit or payment by themselves, these facilities provide assistance on a case-by-case basis which can lower rehab costs so that it can be afforded by that particular client. How this typically works is the person 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 family and financial information intake administrators can determine what that client will need to pay, using a sliding scale.

As an example, if an individual in Park Forest only earns $18,000/year, has 3 dependents and 800 dollars in monthly bills they may only need to pay $1000 for rehab, whereas a person who has no family and makes $30,000 a year with no overhead may need to pay much more.

Even in cases where sliding payment scales are offered, people may need to seek further financial help to pay this lesser amount. Intake staff can help individuals or their loved ones who are footing the bill 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 finishes treatment.
