Sliding Fee Scale - Drug and Alcohol Treatment Programs - Bethlehem, KY.

A kind of payment assistance that some substance abuse rehabilitation facilities may give to their clients is a sliding fee scale. If an individual can afford some degree of self-payment, these facilities provide help on a case by case basis which can greatly reduce treatment costs 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 intake administrators can determine the cost to the client using a sliding scale.

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

Even in cases where sliding fee scales are available, people may need to seek additional assistance to afford the lesser amount. Intake administrators can help people or family who are paying for rehab apply for financing from a third party lender, and in mostcases this money doesn't need to be repaid until after the individual completes rehabilitation.
