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

One form of payment help that some drug and alcohol rehab facilities may offer their clients is a sliding fee scale. If a client can afford some degree of self-payment, these centers provide assistance on an individual basis which can greatly reduce treatment costs so that it is affordable for that particular individual. This typically works like this: the client will have to meet certain criteria and requirements for payment assistance, 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 admins can determine what that client will need to pay, using a sliding scale.

As an example, if an individual in St. James only earns $18,000 a year, has 3 dependents and 800 dollars in monthly bills they may only need to pay $1000 for treatment, whereas a person who is single and makes $30,000/year with no overhead will pay much more.

Even in cases where sliding fee scales are offered, clients may need to seek additional financial help to pay the discounted fee. 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 completes rehabilitation.
