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

A type of payment assistance that some drug and alcohol rehab centers can give to their clients is a sliding fee scale. If an individual can provide some degree of self-payment, these programs provide help on an individual basis that can lower rehab costs so that it can be afforded by that particular individual. This typically works like this: the individual will need to satisfy certain 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 family and financial information admissions administrators can determine what that client will need to pay, using a sliding scale.

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

Even in cases where sliding fee scales are offered, people may need to seek additional financial help to pay this lesser fee. Intake admin can help individuals or family who are paying for treatment apply for financing from a third party lender, and in some cases this money doesn't need to be paid until after the client completes rehab.
