Sliding Fee Scale - Drug and Alcohol Treatment Centers - Brunswick, MD.

A kind of payment assistance that some drug rehab centers may give to their clients is a sliding fee scale. If a client can afford some degree of self-payment, these centers provide financial aid on an individual basis that can greatly reduce treatment costs so that it is affordable for that particular individual. How this typically works is the individual 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 intake administrators can determine the cost to the client using a sliding scale.

As an example, if a person in Brunswick 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 a person who has no dependents 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. Intake admin can help clients or family who are paying 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 client finishes treatment.
