Sliding Fee Scale - Drug and Alcohol Treatment Facilities - Patuxent River, MD.

A type of payment help that some drug rehabilitation programs may offer their clients is a sliding fee scale. If a client can afford some degree of self-payment, these programs provide assistance on a case by case basis which can greatly reduce treatment costs so that it can be afforded by that particular individual. How this typically works is the individual 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 what that client will need to pay, using a sliding scale.

For example, if a person in Patuxent River makes $18,000/year, has 3 dependent children they are supporting and $800 in monthly bills they may only need to pay $1000 for rehab, whereas a person who is single and makes $30,000 a year with no overhead may need to pay much more.

Even when sliding fee scales are available, people may need to seek further financial help to afford this lesser amount. Admissions staff can help people or their loved ones who are paying for rehab apply for financing from a third party lender, and in mostcases this money doesn't need to be paid back until after the individual finishes rehab.
