Sliding Fee Scale - Alcohol and Drug Treatment Facilities - Benedict, MD.

One form of payment assistance that some substance abuse rehab centers can offer their clients is a sliding fee scale. If an individual can afford 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 can be afforded by that particular individual. How this typically works is the client will need 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 information intake admins can determine the cost to the client using a sliding scale.

For example, if an individual in Benedict earns $18K a year, has 3 dependents and $800 in monthly bills they may only need to pay $1000 for rehab, whereas a person who has no dependents and makes $30,000/year with no overhead must pay much more.

Even in cases where sliding payment scales are available, individuals may need to seek additional financial help to pay the discounted amount. Intake staff can help individuals or their loved ones who are paying for rehab apply for financing from a third party lender, and in some cases this money doesn't need to be repaid until after the person completes treatment.
