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

One form of payment assistance that some substance abuse treatment facilities may give to their clients is an adjustable fee scale. If a client can provide any deposit or payment by themselves, these facilities provide financial aid on a case by case basis that can greatly reduce treatment costs so that it can be afforded by that particular person. How this typically works is the person will need 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 information intake admins can determine what that client will need to pay, using a sliding scale.

As an example, if a person in Montgomery Village earns $18K a year, has 3 children and $800 in monthly bills they may only need to pay $1000 for treatment, whereas a person who is single and makes $30 a year with no overhead may need to pay $3000.

Even in cases where sliding payment scales are available, individuals may need to seek additional assistance to afford the discounted fee. Intake admin can help individuals or their loved ones who are paying for treatment apply for financing from a third party lender, and in some cases this money doesn't need to be repaid until after the person finishes rehabilitation.
