Sliding Fee Scale - Drug and Alcohol Rehab Programs - Columbia Station, OH.

A kind of payment assistance that some alcohol and drug treatment facilities can offer their clients is a sliding fee scale. If a client can afford some degree of self-payment, these facilities provide financial aid on a case-by-case basis that can greatly reduce treatment 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 administrators can determine what that client will need to pay, using a sliding scale.

As an example, if an individual in Columbia Station makes $18K a year, has 3 dependents and $800 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 must pay $3000.

Even in cases where sliding fee scales are available, individuals may need to seek further financial help to afford this lesser fee. Intake staff can help clients or their loved ones who are footing the bill 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 client finishes rehabilitation.
