Sliding Fee Scale - Drug and Alcohol Rehabilitation Programs - Friendship, MD.

A kind of payment assistance that some substance abuse rehab programs may offer their clients is a sliding fee scale. If a client can afford some degree of self-payment, these centers provide financial aid on a case-by-case basis that can lower treatment costs so that it is affordable for that particular client. How this typically works is the client will have to satisfy certain requirements for payment help and will have to provide information about how many dependents they have, proof of income, what their household overhead is, and the like. Based off this information admissions admins can determine what that client will need to pay, using a sliding scale.

For example, if a person in Friendship only makes $18K a year, has 3 dependent children they are supporting and 800 dollars in monthly bills they may only need to pay $1000 for rehab, whereas someone who has no family and makes $30,000 a year with no overhead will pay $3000.

Even in cases where sliding payment scales are available, clients may need to seek further assistance to afford the lesser fee. Admissions admin can help clients or family 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 completes treatment.
