Sliding Fee Scale - Drug and Alcohol Rehabilitation Centers - Portland, PA.

A type of payment assistance that some alcohol and drug rehabilitation programs may give to their clients is an adjustable fee scale. If an individual can afford some degree of self-payment, these facilities provide assistance on an individual basis that can lower the cost of treatment so that it is affordable for that particular person. This typically works like this: the individual will have 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 admins can determine the cost to the client using a sliding scale.

For example, if an individual in Portland only earns $18,000/year, has 3 dependents and $800 in monthly bills they may only need to pay $1000 for rehab, whereas a person who has no dependents and makes $30,000 a year with no overhead must pay $3000.

Even in cases where sliding fee scales are available, people may need to seek further financial help to afford the lesser fee. Intake admin can help people or their loved ones 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 finishes treatment.
