Sliding Fee Scale - Alcohol and Drug Rehab Centers - Gordo, AL.

One kind of payment assistance that some drug treatment programs can give to their clients is a sliding fee scale. If a client can afford some degree of self-payment, these centers provide help on a case-by-case basis which can lower treatment costs so that it can be afforded by that particular client. This typically works like this: the client will have to satisfy certain requirements for payment assistance, 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 a person in Gordo earns $18K a year, has 3 dependent children they are supporting and 800 dollars 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 must pay much more.

Even in cases where sliding fee scales are available, clients may need to seek additional financial help to afford this discounted amount. Intake staff can help clients or family who are paying 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.
