Sliding Fee Scale - Alcohol and Drug Rehab Centers - Mount Rainier, MD.

A kind of payment help that some substance abuse treatment centers may offer their clients is an adjustable fee scale. If an individual can afford some degree of self-payment, these centers provide assistance on a case-by-case basis that can lower rehab costs so that it is affordable for that particular client. How this typically works is the client 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 admissions admins can determine the cost to the client using a sliding scale.

For example, if someone in Mount Rainier 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 has no dependents and makes $30,000/year with no overhead will pay $3000.

Even in cases where sliding fee scales are available, clients may need to seek additional assistance to afford this lesser fee. Admissions staff can help clients or family who are paying for rehab apply for financing from a third party lender, and in some cases this money doesn't need to be repaid until after the client completes rehabilitation.
