Sliding Fee Scale - Drug and Alcohol Rehab Centers - East Smithfield, PA.

One kind of payment assistance that some substance abuse rehab facilities can give to their clients is a sliding fee scale. If a client can provide any deposit or payment by themselves, these facilities provide assistance on an individual basis which can greatly reduce the cost of treatment so that it is affordable for that particular individual. This typically works like this: the individual 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 family and financial information admissions admins can determine what that client will need to pay, using a sliding scale.

As an example, if someone in East Smithfield only 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 has no dependents and makes $30 a year with no overhead may need to pay $3000.

Even when sliding payment scales are offered, people may need to seek further assistance to pay the lesser amount. Admissions admin can help clients 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 repaid until after the client completes treatment.
