Sliding Fee Scale - Alcohol and Drug Rehabilitation Programs - Winnetka, IL.

One kind of payment help that some drug treatment programs may give to their clients is a sliding fee scale. If an individual can afford some degree of self-payment, these programs provide assistance on a case by case basis which can greatly reduce the cost of treatment so that it is affordable for that particular individual. How this typically works is the person will have to meet certain criteria and 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 family and financial information admissions administrators can determine what that client will need to pay, using a sliding scale.

As an example, if a person in Winnetka makes $18,000/year, has 3 dependents and 800 dollars in monthly bills they may only need to pay $1000 for treatment, whereas a person who is single and makes $30 a year with no overhead must pay much more.

Even when sliding fee scales are available, clients may need to seek further assistance to afford this discounted amount. Admissions staff can help clients or family who are paying 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 rehabilitation.
