Sliding Fee Scale - Alcohol and Drug Rehab Facilities - Southampton, PA.

A kind of payment assistance that some substance abuse treatment centers can offer their clients is a sliding fee scale. If a client can afford any deposit or payment by themselves, these programs provide assistance on a case-by-case basis which can lower treatment costs so that it is affordable for that particular client. This typically works like this: 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 family and financial information admissions admins can determine the cost to the client using a sliding scale.

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

Even when sliding payment scales are offered, clients may need to seek additional assistance to pay this lesser fee. Intake administrators can help clients or their loved ones who are paying for treatment apply for financing from a third party lender, and in some cases this money doesn't need to be repaid until after the person completes rehab.
