Sliding Fee Scale - Alcohol and Drug Treatment Centers - Holly Pond, AL.

One kind of payment assistance that some substance abuse rehab programs may offer their clients is a sliding fee scale. If a client can afford some degree of self-payment, these programs provide financial aid on a case by case basis that can lower the cost of treatment so that it is affordable for that particular client. This typically works like this: the person will need to meet certain criteria and 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.

For example, if an individual in Holly Pond makes $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 $30,000/year with no overhead may need to pay $3000.

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