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

A type of payment assistance that some drug rehabilitation programs may give to their clients is a sliding fee scale. If an individual can provide any deposit or payment by themselves, these programs provide assistance on an individual basis that can lower rehab costs so that it is affordable for that particular person. How this typically works is the person will have to meet certain criteria and 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 information admissions admins can determine the cost to the client using a sliding scale.

For example, if someone in Putnam makes $18K a year, has 3 dependents and $800 in monthly bills they may only need to pay $1000 for rehab, whereas someone who has no dependents and makes $30,000/year with no overhead may need to pay much more.

Even in cases where sliding fee scales are offered, individuals may need to seek further financial help to pay the discounted fee. Intake administrators can help people or their loved ones who are paying for treatment apply for financing from a third party lender, and in some cases this money doesn't need to be paid until after the individual finishes treatment.
