Sliding Fee Scale - Drug and Alcohol Rehabilitation Facilities - Long Beach, WA.

A type of payment help that some substance abuse rehab centers may give to their clients is a sliding fee scale. If a client can provide some degree of self-payment, these centers provide help on an individual basis that can greatly reduce rehab costs so that it can be afforded by that particular client. How this typically works is the individual will need to satisfy certain 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 information intake admins can determine the cost to the client using a sliding scale.

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

Even in cases where sliding payment scales are offered, clients may need to seek additional financial help to afford this discounted fee. Admissions staff 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 repaid until after the person completes rehabilitation.
