Sliding Fee Scale - Alcohol and Drug Treatment Centers - Terral, OK.

A kind of payment assistance that some drug and alcohol treatment centers may offer their clients is a sliding fee scale. If an individual can afford some degree of self-payment, these centers provide assistance on a case by case basis that can lower treatment costs so that it is affordable for that particular client. This typically works like this: the client will have to meet certain criteria and 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.

For example, if someone in Terral makes $18,000/year, has 3 dependents and $800 in monthly bills they may only need to pay $1000 for treatment, whereas a person who has no family and makes $30,000/year with no overhead must pay $3000.

Even when sliding payment scales are offered, people may need to seek further assistance to afford this discounted fee. Intake staff can help clients or family who are paying for treatment apply for financing from a third party lender, and in mostcases this money doesn't need to be repaid until after the person completes treatment.
