Sliding Fee Scale - Drug and Alcohol Rehab Centers - Lancaster, TN.

A type of payment help that some alcohol and drug treatment centers may offer their clients is a sliding fee scale. If an individual can afford some degree of self-payment, these facilities provide help on a case-by-case basis that can lower treatment costs so that it is affordable for that particular individual. This typically works like this: the individual will have 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 information intake administrators can determine the cost to the client using a sliding scale.

As an example, if an individual in Lancaster 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 is single and makes $30,000 a year with no overhead will pay $3000.

Even when sliding fee scales are available, clients may need to seek additional assistance to afford the lesser amount. Intake administrators can help people 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 individual finishes rehabilitation.
