Sliding Fee Scale - Drug and Alcohol Treatment Centers - Schoenchen, KS.

A type of payment assistance that some drug and alcohol rehabilitation programs may offer their clients is a sliding fee scale. If an individual can afford some degree of self-payment, these centers provide help on a case-by-case basis which can greatly reduce the cost of treatment so that it can be afforded by that particular client. This typically works like this: the client will need to meet certain criteria and requirements for payment assistance, 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 intake administrators can determine the cost to the client using a sliding scale.

As an example, if an individual in Schoenchen makes $18K a year, has 3 dependents and $800 in monthly bills they may only need to pay $1000 for rehab, whereas an individual who is single and makes $30,000 a year with no overhead may need to pay $3000.

Even when sliding payment scales are available, clients may need to seek additional financial help to afford this lesser fee. Intake staff can help individuals or their loved ones who are footing the bill for treatment apply for financing from a third party lender, and in some cases this money doesn't need to be paid until after the client finishes rehabilitation.
