Sliding Fee Scale - Drug and Alcohol Rehabilitation Programs - Pierce City, MO.

A type of payment assistance that some alcohol and drug treatment programs may offer their clients is a sliding fee scale. If a client can provide any deposit or payment by themselves, these centers provide financial aid on a case-by-case basis which can lower treatment costs so that it can be afforded by that particular individual. This typically works like this: the person will need to meet certain criteria and 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 admissions admins can determine the cost to the client using a sliding scale.

For example, if an individual in Pierce City makes $18,000/year, has 3 dependent children they are supporting and $800 in monthly bills they may only need to pay $1000 for treatment, whereas someone who has no family and makes $30,000/year with no overhead may need to pay $3000.

Even in cases where sliding fee scales are offered, clients may need to seek additional assistance to afford this lesser amount. Intake staff can help clients or their loved ones who are paying for rehab apply for financing from a third party lender, and in mostcases this money doesn't need to be paid until after the person finishes rehabilitation.
