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

A type of payment assistance that some drug and alcohol rehabilitation centers may offer their clients is an adjustable fee scale. If a client can afford any deposit or payment by themselves, these programs provide assistance on a case by case basis that can greatly reduce rehab costs so that it is affordable for that particular individual. This typically works like this: the individual will need to satisfy certain 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 information intake admins can determine the cost to the client using a sliding scale.

As an example, if an individual in Chesapeake City only makes $18K a year, has 3 children and $800 in monthly bills they may only need to pay $1000 for treatment, whereas someone who has no family 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 additional financial help to pay the discounted amount. Admissions staff can help clients or family who are footing the bill for rehab apply for financing from a third party lender, and in mostcases this money doesn't need to be paid until after the person completes rehab.
