Sliding Fee Scale - Drug and Alcohol Treatment Facilities - Lebanon, ME.

One form of payment assistance that some drug rehabilitation facilities can 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 is affordable for that particular client. How this typically works is the person will need to satisfy certain 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.

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

Even in cases where sliding payment scales are available, people may need to seek further financial help to pay the lesser amount. Intake administrators 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 until after the person completes rehabilitation.
