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

One form of payment help that some substance abuse treatment facilities may give to their clients is a sliding fee scale. If an individual can provide some degree of self-payment, these facilities provide help on a case by case basis which can lower treatment costs so that it can be afforded by that particular person. How this typically works is the person 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 intake administrators can determine the cost to the client using a sliding scale.

For example, if an individual in Rio only makes $18,000/year, has 3 children and 800 dollars in monthly bills they may only need to pay $1000 for treatment, whereas someone who has no dependents and makes $30 a year with no overhead must pay $3000.

Even when sliding fee scales are offered, clients may need to seek additional financial help to pay this lesser amount. Admissions staff can help individuals or family 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 rehabilitation.
