One kind of payment assistance that some drug and alcohol rehab facilities may give to their clients is a sliding fee scale. If an individual can provide some degree of self-payment, these programs provide financial aid on a case-by-case basis which can greatly reduce rehab costs so that it is affordable for that particular individual. How this typically works is the individual will have 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 admins can determine the cost to the client using a sliding scale.
As an example, if an individual in Otsego only earns $18K a year, has 3 dependent children they are supporting and $800 in monthly bills they may only need to pay $1000 for treatment, whereas someone who is single and makes $30,000 a year with no overhead may need to pay $3000.
Even when sliding fee scales are offered, people may need to seek further financial help to pay this discounted amount. Admissions 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 until after the person finishes treatment.
