Sliding Fee Scale - Drug and Alcohol Treatment Programs - Freeland, WA.

A kind of payment assistance that some drug and alcohol treatment facilities may give to their clients is a sliding fee scale. If a client can provide any deposit or payment by themselves, these facilities provide assistance on an individual basis that can lower the cost of treatment so that it is affordable for that particular client. This typically works like this: the person will have to satisfy certain 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 family and financial information admissions administrators can determine what that client will need to pay, using a sliding scale.

For example, if a person in Freeland only makes $18,000 a year, has 3 dependent children they are supporting and 800 dollars in monthly bills they may only need to pay $1000 for treatment, whereas a person who is single and makes $30,000/year with no overhead may need to pay much more.

Even in cases where sliding fee scales are offered, people may need to seek additional financial help to afford this lesser fee. Admissions admin can help clients or family who are paying for rehab apply for financing from a third party lender, and in some cases this money doesn't need to be paid until after the individual completes rehab.
