Sliding Fee Scale - Drug and Alcohol Rehab Programs - Damariscotta, ME.

A type of payment help that some drug and alcohol rehab facilities can offer their clients is a sliding fee scale. If a client can afford any deposit or payment by themselves, these programs provide financial aid on a case by case basis that can greatly reduce rehab costs so that it is affordable for that particular client. This typically works like this: the individual will have to satisfy certain 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 information intake admins can determine what that client will need to pay, using a sliding scale.

For example, if a person in Damariscotta only earns $18,000/year, has 3 dependents and 800 dollars in monthly bills they may only need to pay $1000 for rehab, whereas an individual who has no family and makes $30 a year with no overhead may need to pay much more.

Even when sliding fee scales are offered, individuals may need to seek further assistance to afford the lesser amount. Admissions staff can help people or their loved ones who are paying for treatment apply for financing from a third party lender, and in mostcases this money doesn't need to be paid until after the client completes treatment.
