Sliding Fee Scale - Alcohol and Drug Rehab Centers - Alger, MI.

A kind of payment assistance that some substance abuse rehabilitation programs may give to their clients is a sliding fee scale. If an individual can afford some degree of self-payment, these facilities provide help on a case-by-case basis that can lower treatment costs so that it can be afforded by that particular person. How this typically works is the client will have to meet certain criteria and requirements for payment assistance, 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 admins can determine what that client will need to pay, using a sliding scale.

As an example, if someone in Alger only makes $18,000/year, has 3 children and 800 dollars in monthly bills they may only need to pay $1000 for rehab, whereas a person who has no family and makes $30,000/year with no overhead must pay $3000.

Even in cases where sliding fee scales are offered, individuals may need to seek additional financial help to afford the lesser amount. Admissions administrators can help individuals or their loved ones who are paying for rehab apply for financing from a third party lender, and in some cases this money doesn't need to be paid until after the client completes treatment.
