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

A kind of payment help that some drug and alcohol treatment facilities may give to their clients is an adjustable fee scale. If a client can provide some degree of self-payment, these centers provide financial aid on a case-by-case basis that can lower the cost of treatment so that it can be afforded by that particular person. This typically works like this: the person will need 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 family and financial information admissions administrators can determine what that client will need to pay, using a sliding scale.

As an example, if a person in Chelsea earns $18,000/year, has 3 dependent children they are supporting and $800 in monthly bills they may only need to pay $1000 for treatment, whereas an individual who has no family and makes $30,000/year with no overhead will pay $3000.

Even when sliding payment scales are offered, clients may need to seek further financial help to pay this discounted amount. Admissions administrators can help people 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 individual completes treatment.
