Sliding Fee Scale - Drug and Alcohol Treatment Centers - Lakeview, MI.

A kind of payment assistance that some substance abuse rehabilitation centers can offer their clients is a sliding fee scale. If a client can provide some degree of self-payment, these facilities provide help on an individual basis which can greatly reduce the cost of treatment so that it is affordable for that particular individual. This typically works like this: the client 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 intake admins can determine what that client will need to pay, using a sliding scale.

For example, if a person in Lakeview makes $18,000 a 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 dependents and makes $30,000 a year with no overhead will pay $3000.

Even when sliding fee scales are available, people may need to seek further assistance to afford this lesser amount. Intake staff can help clients or family who are paying for treatment apply for financing from a third party lender, and in mostcases this money doesn't need to be paid back until after the person completes treatment.
