Sliding Fee Scale - Alcohol and Drug Rehabilitation Programs - Bessemer, AL.

A kind of payment help that some drug and alcohol rehabilitation programs can give to their clients is a sliding fee scale. If an individual can afford some degree of self-payment, these centers provide financial aid on an individual basis which can greatly reduce the cost of treatment so that it is affordable for that particular individual. This typically works like this: the individual will need to satisfy certain requirements for payment help and will have to provide information about how many dependents they have, proof of income, what their household overhead is, and the like. Based off this information admissions admins can determine what that client will need to pay, using a sliding scale.

For example, if a person in Bessemer earns $18,000/year, has 3 dependent children they are supporting and $800 in monthly bills they may only need to pay $1000 for rehab, whereas someone who has no dependents and makes $30,000/year with no overhead will pay much more.

Even in cases where sliding fee scales are available, people may need to seek additional financial help to afford this lesser amount. Admissions administrators can help clients 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 back until after the person completes rehabilitation.
