Sliding Fee Scale - Alcohol and Drug Treatment Programs - East Dennis, MA.

One kind of payment assistance that some alcohol and drug rehabilitation programs can offer their clients is a sliding fee scale. If a client can afford some degree of self-payment, these programs provide financial aid on a case by case basis which can greatly reduce treatment costs so that it can be afforded by that particular person. How this typically works is the client will have to meet certain criteria and 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 intake administrators can determine the cost to the client using a sliding scale.

As an example, if a person in East Dennis only earns $18K a year, has 3 children 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 $3000.

Even in cases where sliding fee scales are offered, clients may need to seek additional assistance to pay this lesser fee. Intake staff can help clients or family who are paying 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 finishes rehab.
