Sliding Fee Scale - Drug and Alcohol Rehab Programs - Lake, MI.

A type of payment assistance that some drug rehabilitation facilities may give to their clients is a sliding fee scale. If an individual can provide some degree of self-payment, these facilities 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 client will have to satisfy certain 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 a person in Lake only earns $18,000/year, has 3 dependent children they are supporting and 800 dollars in monthly bills they may only need to pay $1000 for treatment, whereas someone who has no dependents and makes $30 a year with no overhead must pay much more.

Even in cases where sliding fee scales are offered, individuals may need to seek additional financial help to pay the lesser amount. Intake 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 repaid until after the person finishes rehabilitation.
