Sliding Fee Scale - Alcohol and Drug Rehabilitation Facilities - Oakwood, GA.

One form of payment assistance that some alcohol and drug rehab centers may give to their clients is a sliding fee scale. If an individual can provide some degree of self-payment, these programs provide financial aid on a case by case basis that can greatly reduce treatment costs so that it is affordable for that particular client. How this typically works is the client will have to meet certain criteria and requirements for payment help 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 admins can determine the cost to the client using a sliding scale.

As an example, if an individual in Oakwood makes $18,000/year, has 3 children and $800 in monthly bills they may only need to pay $1000 for treatment, whereas an individual who has no family and makes $30 a year with no overhead must pay $3000.

Even in cases where sliding fee scales are available, people may need to seek additional assistance to afford the lesser amount. Intake staff can help people or their loved ones 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 treatment.
