Sliding Fee Scale - Drug and Alcohol Treatment Centers - Blythedale, MO.

A type of payment assistance that some alcohol and drug rehab programs can give to their clients is a sliding fee scale. If a client can provide some degree of self-payment, these centers provide help on an individual basis that can greatly reduce the cost of treatment so that it is affordable for that particular person. How this typically works is the individual will have 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 information admissions administrators can determine what that client will need to pay, using a sliding scale.

As an example, if someone in Blythedale only earns $18,000 a year, has 3 dependent children they are supporting and 800 dollars in monthly bills they may only need to pay $1000 for treatment, whereas someone who is single and makes $30,000/year with no overhead must pay $3000.

Even in cases where sliding payment scales are offered, individuals may need to seek further assistance to afford the lesser fee. Intake staff 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 repaid until after the person completes rehab.
