Sliding Fee Scale - Alcohol and Drug Treatment Centers - Petersburg, WV.

One form of payment assistance that some alcohol and drug treatment centers can offer their clients is a sliding fee scale. If a client can provide any deposit or payment by themselves, these programs provide financial aid on a case-by-case basis that can lower the cost of treatment so that it is affordable for that particular client. This typically works like this: the client will need 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 the cost to the client using a sliding scale.

For example, if an individual in Petersburg only makes $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 a year with no overhead must pay much more.

Even in cases where sliding fee scales are offered, individuals may need to seek further financial help to pay the discounted fee. Admissions administrators can help individuals or their loved ones 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 person completes treatment.
