Sliding Fee Scale - Drug and Alcohol Rehabilitation Programs - Palmetto, FL.

One form of payment help that some alcohol and drug rehab centers may give to their clients is a sliding fee scale. If a client can afford some degree of self-payment, these centers provide assistance on a case-by-case basis which can greatly reduce rehab costs so that it is affordable for that particular client. This typically works like this: the client will need to meet certain criteria and 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 information intake administrators can determine the cost to the client using a sliding scale.

For example, if someone in Palmetto earns $18,000/year, has 3 dependent children they are supporting and 800 dollars in monthly bills they may only need to pay $1000 for treatment, whereas someone who is single and makes $30,000 a year with no overhead must pay much more.

Even when sliding fee scales are offered, people may need to seek additional assistance to afford the lesser fee. Intake administrators can help people or family who are footing the bill 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 individual completes rehab.
