Sliding Fee Scale - Drug and Alcohol Treatment Programs - Claiborne, MD.

One form of payment assistance that some substance abuse rehabilitation programs can offer their clients is a sliding fee scale. If a client can afford any deposit or payment by themselves, these programs provide assistance on a case by case basis which can lower treatment costs so that it is affordable for that particular person. This typically works like this: the client will need 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 information admissions admins can determine what that client will need to pay, using a sliding scale.

As an example, if an individual in Claiborne earns $18K a year, has 3 dependent children they are supporting and $800 in monthly bills they may only need to pay $1000 for treatment, whereas a person who has no family and makes $30,000 a year with no overhead must pay much more.

Even in cases where sliding fee scales are available, clients may need to seek additional financial help to pay the lesser fee. Intake admin can help people 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 person finishes rehab.
