Sliding Fee Scale - Drug and Alcohol Rehabilitation Centers - Wilmette, IL.

One form of payment assistance that some drug and alcohol rehab centers may give to their clients is an adjustable fee scale. If an individual can afford some degree of self-payment, these programs provide financial aid on an individual basis which can lower treatment costs 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 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 intake admins can determine what that client will need to pay, using a sliding scale.

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

Even when sliding fee scales are available, people may need to seek further financial help to afford the discounted amount. Intake administrators can help people 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 back until after the person completes rehab.
