Sliding Fee Scale - Alcohol and Drug Treatment Facilities - Chickamauga, GA.

One form of payment assistance that some drug rehab facilities may offer their clients is a sliding fee scale. If an individual can provide some degree of self-payment, these facilities provide assistance on a case by case basis that can lower the cost of treatment so that it can be afforded by that particular person. How this typically works is the client will have 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.

As an example, if someone in Chickamauga only earns $18,000 a year, has 3 dependents and 800 dollars in monthly bills they may only need to pay $1000 for rehab, whereas a person who has no family and makes $30,000 a year with no overhead may need to pay $3000.

Even in cases where sliding payment scales are offered, people may need to seek further assistance to afford the discounted amount. Admissions staff can help people or family who are footing the bill for treatment apply for financing from a third party lender, and in some cases this money doesn't need to be repaid until after the person finishes rehab.
