Sliding Fee Scale - Alcohol and Drug Rehabilitation Facilities - Lake Jackson, TX.

A kind of payment assistance that some substance abuse rehabilitation programs may give to their clients is a sliding fee scale. If a client can afford some degree of self-payment, these centers provide help on an individual basis that can lower the cost of treatment so that it can be afforded by that particular client. This typically works like this: the individual will have to satisfy certain 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 administrators can determine what that client will need to pay, using a sliding scale.

As an example, if someone in Lake Jackson earns $18,000/year, has 3 dependent children they are supporting and $800 in monthly bills they may only need to pay $1000 for treatment, whereas someone who has no dependents and makes $30,000 a year with no overhead may need to pay $3000.

Even when sliding payment scales are available, clients may need to seek further financial help to pay the lesser fee. Intake administrators can help individuals or their loved ones who are footing the bill for rehab apply for financing from a third party lender, and in mostcases this money doesn't need to be paid back until after the client completes treatment.
