Sliding Fee Scale - Drug and Alcohol Treatment Facilities - Powers, OR.

A type of payment help that some alcohol and drug rehabilitation programs can offer their clients is a sliding fee scale. If a client can provide some degree of self-payment, these facilities provide assistance on a case by case basis which can greatly reduce treatment costs so that it can be afforded by that particular client. This typically works like this: the individual 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 intake administrators can determine what that client will need to pay, using a sliding scale.

As an example, if someone in Powers 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 treatment, whereas an individual who has no dependents and makes $30,000/year with no overhead may need to pay $3000.

Even when sliding fee scales are offered, clients may need to seek additional financial help to pay the discounted amount. Admissions 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 client finishes rehab.
