One form of payment assistance that some substance abuse rehab centers may offer their clients is a sliding fee scale. If an individual can afford any deposit or payment by themselves, these centers provide financial aid on a case by case basis which can greatly reduce rehab costs so that it can be afforded by that particular client. How this typically works is the person will need 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.
For example, if a person in Houghton only earns $18K a year, has 3 dependents and 800 dollars in monthly bills they may only need to pay $1000 for treatment, whereas an individual who has no dependents and makes $30 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. Intake staff can help people 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 back until after the individual completes rehabilitation.
