Sliding Fee Scale - Alcohol and Drug Treatment Facilities - Macatawa, MI.

A type of payment assistance that some drug treatment programs may offer their clients is a sliding fee scale. If an individual can provide any deposit or payment by themselves, these programs provide financial aid on a case-by-case basis that can greatly reduce rehab costs so that it is affordable for that particular individual. This typically works like this: the client 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 information intake admins can determine the cost to the client using a sliding scale.

As an example, if a person in Macatawa earns $18,000/year, has 3 dependents and $800 in monthly bills they may only need to pay $1000 for rehab, whereas someone who has no family and makes $30,000 a year with no overhead will pay much more.

Even in cases where sliding fee scales are offered, people may need to seek additional financial help to afford this lesser amount. Intake staff can help individuals or family 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 client completes rehab.
