Sliding Fee Scale - Alcohol and Drug Rehab Centers - Petersburg, OH.

One kind of payment help that some alcohol and drug rehab centers can give to their clients is a sliding fee scale. If an individual can provide any deposit or payment by themselves, these facilities provide help on an individual basis that can greatly reduce the cost of treatment so that it is affordable for that particular individual. How this typically works is the client will need to meet certain criteria and 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 information intake administrators can determine what that client will need to pay, using a sliding scale.

As an example, if an individual in Petersburg only earns $18K a year, has 3 children and 800 dollars in monthly bills they may only need to pay $1000 for treatment, whereas a person who has no family and makes $30,000/year with no overhead may need to pay much more.

Even when sliding payment scales are offered, people may need to seek additional assistance to afford this lesser fee. Intake staff can help clients or family who are footing the bill 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 finishes treatment.
