Sliding Fee Scale - Alcohol and Drug Treatment Programs - Montgomery, PA.

One form of payment assistance that some alcohol and drug treatment facilities may offer their clients is an adjustable fee scale. If a client can afford any deposit or payment by themselves, these facilities provide help on a case-by-case basis which can lower treatment costs so that it is affordable for that particular client. How this typically works is the person will have to meet certain criteria and requirements for payment assistance, 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 admissions admins can determine what that client will need to pay, using a sliding scale.

For example, if someone in Montgomery only earns $18,000 a year, has 3 dependent children they are supporting and $800 in monthly bills they may only need to pay $1000 for rehab, whereas a person who is single and makes $30,000/year with no overhead may need to pay much more.

Even in cases where sliding payment scales are offered, clients may need to seek further assistance to pay this discounted fee. Admissions staff can help individuals or their loved ones who are footing the bill for treatment apply for financing from a third party lender, and in some cases this money doesn't need to be paid until after the client completes rehabilitation.
