Sliding Fee Scale - Alcohol and Drug Rehab Centers - Hickory, KY.

One form of payment assistance that some substance abuse treatment facilities can give to their clients is an adjustable fee scale. If a client can provide some degree of self-payment, these facilities provide assistance on a case-by-case basis that can lower rehab costs so that it can be afforded by that particular client. How this typically works is the person will have to satisfy certain requirements for payment help and will have to provide information about how many dependents they have, proof of income, what their household overhead is, and the like. Based off this family and financial information admissions administrators can determine the cost to the client using a sliding scale.

For example, if a person in Hickory 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 an individual who is single and makes $30 a year with no overhead will pay much more.

Even in cases where sliding payment scales are offered, individuals may need to seek additional financial help to afford this discounted amount. Intake staff can help clients or their loved ones 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 individual finishes treatment.
