Sliding Fee Scale - Drug and Alcohol Rehab Facilities - Wesley, ME.

One kind of payment help that some substance abuse treatment facilities may give to their clients is a sliding fee scale. If an individual can afford some degree of self-payment, these programs provide help on a case by case basis that can lower the cost of treatment so that it is affordable for that particular client. This typically works like this: the individual will need to meet certain criteria and requirements for payment assistance, 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 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 Wesley makes $18,000 a year, has 3 dependent children they are supporting and $800 in monthly bills they may only need to pay $1000 for treatment, whereas a person who is single and makes $30,000 a year with no overhead will pay $3000.

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