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

One kind of payment assistance that some drug rehab programs can give to their clients is an adjustable fee scale. If a client can afford some degree of self-payment, these centers provide help on a case-by-case basis that can greatly reduce the cost of treatment 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 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 information admissions administrators can determine what that client will need to pay, using a sliding scale.

For example, if someone in Mount Airy only earns $18,000 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 is single and makes $30,000 a year with no overhead will pay much more.

Even in cases where sliding payment scales are offered, clients 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 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 client completes treatment.
