Sliding Fee Scale - Drug and Alcohol Rehabilitation Facilities - South Hill, VA.

A type of payment assistance that some substance abuse rehabilitation centers may offer their clients is a sliding fee scale. If a client can afford some degree of self-payment, these programs provide help on a case-by-case basis that can greatly reduce treatment costs so that it is affordable for that particular person. This typically works like this: the person 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 family and financial information admissions administrators can determine the cost to the client using a sliding scale.

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

Even when sliding payment scales are available, clients may need to seek additional financial help to pay this lesser fee. Intake staff 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 until after the person finishes treatment.
