Sliding Fee Scale - Drug and Alcohol Treatment Programs - Port Austin, MI.

One kind of payment help that some alcohol and drug rehabilitation facilities may offer their clients is an adjustable fee scale. If an individual can afford any deposit or payment by themselves, these centers provide assistance on a case-by-case basis which can greatly reduce the cost of treatment so that it can be afforded by that particular client. This typically works like this: the individual will need to satisfy certain 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 family and financial information intake administrators can determine what that client will need to pay, using a sliding scale.

For example, if someone in Port Austin 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 rehab, whereas an individual who is single and makes $30 a year with no overhead may need to pay much more.

Even when sliding fee scales are offered, individuals may need to seek additional financial help to afford this discounted amount. Intake staff can help people or family who are paying for treatment apply for financing from a third party lender, and in some cases this money doesn't need to be paid back until after the person completes treatment.
