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

One form of payment assistance that some alcohol and drug rehabilitation programs may offer their clients is an adjustable fee scale. If a client can provide any deposit or payment by themselves, these facilities provide financial aid on a case-by-case basis which can greatly reduce treatment costs so that it is affordable for that particular individual. This typically works like this: the client will need to satisfy certain 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 family and financial information admissions administrators can determine the cost to the client using a sliding scale.

As an example, if a person in Westchester only makes $18,000/year, has 3 children 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 a year with no overhead must pay $3000.

Even in cases where sliding fee scales are offered, individuals may need to seek additional financial help to afford the lesser amount. Intake 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 person finishes rehabilitation.
