Sliding Fee Scale - Alcohol and Drug Rehabilitation Centers - Marengo, IN.

One form of payment assistance that some drug treatment programs can give to their clients is an adjustable fee scale. If an individual can provide some degree of self-payment, these centers provide assistance on an individual basis which can greatly reduce the cost of treatment so that it can be afforded by that particular individual. How this typically works is the individual will have to satisfy certain requirements for payment help 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 intake administrators can determine what that client will need to pay, using a sliding scale.

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

Even when sliding payment scales are available, people may need to seek further assistance to pay the lesser fee. Intake staff can help individuals 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 back until after the person completes rehab.
