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

A kind of payment help that some substance abuse treatment facilities may offer their clients is a sliding fee scale. If a client can provide any deposit or payment by themselves, these programs provide help on an individual basis which can greatly reduce the cost of treatment so that it is affordable for that particular client. This typically works like this: the individual will need to meet certain criteria and requirements for payment assistance, and will have to provide proof of income, information about how many dependents they have, what their household overhead is, etc. Based off this information intake admins can determine what that client will need to pay, using a sliding scale.

For example, if a person in New Era makes $18,000/year, has 3 dependent children they are supporting and 800 dollars in monthly bills they may only need to pay $1000 for rehab, whereas an individual who is single and makes $30,000 a year with no overhead must pay $3000.

Even when sliding fee scales are offered, clients may need to seek further financial help to afford the lesser fee. Admissions admin 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 until after the client completes treatment.
