Sliding Fee Scale - Alcohol and Drug Rehab Programs - Fort Leonard Wood, MO.

A kind of payment help that some substance abuse rehab programs may give to their clients is an adjustable fee scale. If an individual can afford some degree of self-payment, these facilities provide financial aid on a case by case basis which can greatly reduce rehab costs so that it is affordable for that particular client. How this typically works is the client will have to satisfy certain requirements for payment help 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 intake administrators can determine the cost to the client using a sliding scale.

As an example, if an individual in Fort Leonard Wood earns $18,000/year, has 3 children and $800 in monthly bills they may only need to pay $1000 for rehab, whereas a person who is single and makes $30,000/year with no overhead may need to pay much more.

Even when sliding fee scales are available, clients may need to seek further assistance to pay the lesser fee. Intake staff can help clients 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 back until after the client finishes rehabilitation.
