Sliding Fee Scale - Drug and Alcohol Treatment Programs - Lumberton, MS.

A type of payment assistance that some substance abuse rehab facilities can give to their clients is a sliding fee scale. If a client can provide any deposit or payment by themselves, these programs provide help on an individual basis which can lower the cost of treatment so that it can be afforded by that particular client. This typically works like this: 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 family and financial information admissions admins can determine what that client will need to pay, using a sliding scale.

As an example, if a person in Lumberton only earns $18K a year, has 3 dependents and 800 dollars in monthly bills they may only need to pay $1000 for treatment, whereas a person who has no dependents and makes $30,000/year with no overhead must pay much more.

Even in cases where sliding fee scales are available, individuals may need to seek further financial help to afford this lesser amount. Intake staff can help people 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 back until after the client completes treatment.
