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

A kind of payment help that some drug and alcohol rehabilitation facilities can give to their clients is a sliding fee scale. If a client can provide some degree of self-payment, these programs provide financial aid on a case by case basis which can greatly reduce rehab costs so that it can be afforded by that particular client. This typically works like this: the individual will have 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 information intake administrators can determine the cost to the client using a sliding scale.

As an example, if an individual in Olney only makes $18K a year, has 3 children and $800 in monthly bills they may only need to pay $1000 for treatment, whereas an individual who has no dependents and makes $30 a year with no overhead will pay $3000.

Even in cases where sliding fee scales are offered, individuals may need to seek additional financial help to pay this lesser fee. Intake admin can help individuals or family who are footing the bill for treatment 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 treatment.
