Sliding Fee Scale - Drug and Alcohol Rehabilitation Centers - Sullivan, OH.

A type of payment assistance that some drug and alcohol rehab facilities can offer their clients is a sliding fee scale. If an individual can afford some degree of self-payment, these centers provide financial aid on a case-by-case basis which can lower treatment costs so that it can be afforded by that particular person. This typically works like this: the client will have to satisfy certain 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 family and financial information admissions administrators can determine what that client will need to pay, using a sliding scale.

As an example, if someone in Sullivan 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 a person who is single and makes $30 a year with no overhead may need to pay $3000.

Even in cases where sliding fee scales are offered, people may need to seek additional assistance to afford this lesser fee. Intake staff can help individuals or family 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 back until after the individual finishes treatment.
