Sliding Fee Scale - Drug and Alcohol Rehab Facilities - Excel, AL.

One kind of payment assistance that some substance abuse treatment programs can offer their clients is a sliding fee scale. If an individual can provide any deposit or payment by themselves, these programs provide financial aid on an individual basis that can lower treatment costs so that it is affordable for that particular person. How this typically works is the individual will have 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 family and financial information intake administrators can determine what that client will need to pay, using a sliding scale.

As an example, if an individual in Excel only earns $18,000 a year, has 3 dependents and $800 in monthly bills they may only need to pay $1000 for treatment, whereas a person who is single and makes $30,000 a year with no overhead may need to pay much more.

Even in cases where sliding payment scales are available, people may need to seek additional financial help to pay this lesser fee. Admissions staff can help individuals 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 treatment.
