Sliding Fee Scale - Drug and Alcohol Rehabilitation Centers - Arlington, MA.

One kind of payment help that some drug and alcohol rehabilitation centers may give to their clients is an adjustable fee scale. If an individual can afford some degree of self-payment, these facilities provide financial aid on an individual basis that can greatly reduce treatment costs so that it is affordable for that particular person. This typically works like this: the client will have 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 intake administrators can determine what that client will need to pay, using a sliding scale.

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

Even in cases where sliding payment scales are available, clients may need to seek additional assistance to afford the lesser amount. Admissions staff can help individuals 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 paid back until after the client finishes rehab.
