Sliding Fee Scale - Drug and Alcohol Treatment Programs - Athens, MI.

One kind of payment assistance that some alcohol and drug rehab centers can give to their clients is an adjustable fee scale. If a client can afford any deposit or payment by themselves, these facilities provide help 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 person 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 family and financial information admissions administrators can determine what that client will need to pay, using a sliding scale.

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

Even in cases where sliding fee scales are available, individuals may need to seek additional assistance to afford the lesser amount. Intake admin can help clients or their loved ones who are paying for rehab apply for financing from a third party lender, and in mostcases this money doesn't need to be paid until after the person finishes treatment.
