Sliding Fee Scale - Drug and Alcohol Rehab Programs - Sugar Run, PA.

A type of payment assistance that some drug and alcohol rehabilitation facilities may give to their clients is a sliding fee scale. If an individual can provide any deposit or payment by themselves, these programs provide assistance on a case by case basis which can lower the cost of treatment so that it can be afforded by that particular individual. How this typically works is the client will need to satisfy certain 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 intake administrators can determine the cost to the client using a sliding scale.

For example, if an individual in Sugar Run only makes $18,000/year, has 3 dependents and 800 dollars in monthly bills they may only need to pay $1000 for rehab, whereas a person who has no family and makes $30,000 a year with no overhead will pay much more.

Even when sliding payment scales are offered, individuals may need to seek additional assistance to pay the lesser amount. Intake staff can help individuals or family who are footing the bill for rehab apply for financing from a third party lender, and in some cases this money doesn't need to be paid until after the person finishes treatment.
