Sliding Fee Scale - Drug and Alcohol Rehab Programs - Maryland, NY.

One kind of payment help that some substance abuse rehab centers may give to their clients is an adjustable fee scale. If a client can provide some degree of self-payment, these centers provide financial aid on a case-by-case basis that can lower treatment costs so that it is affordable for that particular client. How this typically works is the client will have to meet certain criteria and 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 information admissions admins can determine what that client will need to pay, using a sliding scale.

As an example, if someone in Maryland earns $18,000/year, has 3 dependents and 800 dollars 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 must pay $3000.

Even in cases where sliding payment scales are available, clients may need to seek additional financial help to pay the discounted amount. Admissions administrators can help individuals 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 repaid until after the individual finishes rehabilitation.
