Sliding Fee Scale - Alcohol and Drug Treatment Centers - Five Points, AL.

A type of payment help that some substance abuse treatment programs can offer their clients is a sliding fee scale. If a client can provide some degree of self-payment, these programs provide assistance on a case by case basis that can lower rehab costs so that it is affordable for that particular client. This typically works like this: the client 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 admissions admins can determine what that client will need to pay, using a sliding scale.

As an example, if someone in Five Points earns $18K a year, has 3 dependents and 800 dollars in monthly bills they may only need to pay $1000 for treatment, whereas someone who is single and makes $30,000/year with no overhead must pay $3000.

Even in cases where sliding fee scales are available, people may need to seek additional assistance to pay this discounted fee. Intake staff can help individuals or family who are paying for rehab apply for financing from a third party lender, and in mostcases this money doesn't need to be paid until after the client completes treatment.
