Sliding Fee Scale - Drug and Alcohol Rehabilitation Facilities - Harwood, MD.

A type of payment assistance that some substance abuse rehabilitation programs may give to their clients is a sliding fee scale. If an individual can provide some degree of self-payment, these centers provide financial aid on a case by case basis which can lower the cost of treatment so that it is affordable for that particular client. How this typically works is the client will have to meet certain criteria and 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 family and financial information intake administrators can determine what that client will need to pay, using a sliding scale.

For example, if a person in Harwood earns $18,000 a year, has 3 dependents and 800 dollars in monthly bills they may only need to pay $1000 for rehab, whereas an individual who is single and makes $30,000/year with no overhead will pay $3000.

Even when sliding payment scales are offered, people may need to seek additional assistance to pay the lesser amount. Admissions administrators can help clients or their loved ones who are footing the bill for rehab 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 rehabilitation.
