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

A kind of payment assistance that some alcohol and drug treatment facilities may give to their clients is an adjustable fee scale. If an individual can provide some degree of self-payment, these programs provide help on a case by case basis which can lower the cost of treatment 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 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 what that client will need to pay, using a sliding scale.

As an example, if an individual in Richland only 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 rehab, whereas someone who has no dependents and makes $30 a year with no overhead may need to pay $3000.

Even when sliding payment scales are available, people may need to seek additional assistance to pay the lesser fee. Admissions staff can help clients 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 paid until after the individual completes rehabilitation.
