Sliding Fee Scale - Alcohol and Drug Treatment Programs - Mexia, AL.

One kind of payment help that some substance abuse rehab facilities can give to their clients is a sliding fee scale. If an individual can afford some degree of self-payment, these programs provide financial aid on an individual basis that can lower the cost of treatment so that it is affordable for that particular individual. This typically works like this: the person will need to meet certain criteria and requirements for payment assistance, and will have to provide proof of income, information about how many dependents they have, what their household overhead is, etc. Based off this family and financial information admissions administrators can determine the cost to the client using a sliding scale.

As an example, if a person in Mexia only earns $18,000 a year, has 3 dependents 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/year with no overhead must pay $3000.

Even in cases where sliding payment scales are available, individuals may need to seek additional financial help to pay the discounted amount. Intake staff can help individuals or family who are paying for rehab 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 finishes rehab.
