Sliding Fee Scale - Drug and Alcohol Treatment Centers - Eddington, ME.

One form of payment assistance that some drug and alcohol rehabilitation facilities can give to their clients is a sliding fee scale. If an individual can provide some degree of self-payment, these programs provide help on a case by case basis that can lower the cost of treatment so that it can be afforded by that particular person. How this typically works is the client will need 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 information intake admins can determine what that client will need to pay, using a sliding scale.

For example, if an individual in Eddington only makes $18,000 a 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 family and makes $30,000 a year with no overhead may need to pay $3000.

Even when sliding fee scales are available, individuals may need to seek further assistance to afford the discounted fee. Admissions administrators can help clients or family who are footing the bill for rehab apply for financing from a third party lender, and in mostcases this money doesn't need to be repaid until after the client finishes rehab.
