Sliding Fee Scale - Drug and Alcohol Rehabilitation Centers - Lisbon, MD.

One kind of payment help that some drug and alcohol rehabilitation programs can offer their clients is an adjustable fee scale. If a client can afford any deposit or payment by themselves, these programs provide financial aid on an individual basis which can lower treatment costs so that it is affordable for that particular client. This typically works like this: the client will need to satisfy certain 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 admissions admins can determine the cost to the client using a sliding scale.

For example, if someone in Lisbon only makes $18,000/year, has 3 dependent children they are supporting and 800 dollars in monthly bills they may only need to pay $1000 for treatment, whereas an individual who has no family and makes $30,000/year with no overhead may need to pay much more.

Even in cases where sliding fee scales are available, people may need to seek additional financial help to afford this discounted fee. Intake administrators can help clients or their loved ones who are footing the bill for treatment apply for financing from a third party lender, and in mostcases this money doesn't need to be paid back until after the person finishes treatment.
