Sliding Fee Scale - Alcohol and Drug Treatment Centers - Marion, MA.

A type of payment help that some substance abuse treatment centers can give to their clients is a sliding fee scale. If a client can afford some degree of self-payment, these facilities provide help on a case-by-case basis which can lower treatment costs so that it can be afforded by that particular individual. This typically works like this: the client will need 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 intake admins can determine what that client will need to pay, using a sliding scale.

As an example, if an individual in Marion makes $18,000/year, has 3 dependents and $800 in monthly bills they may only need to pay $1000 for rehab, whereas someone who is single and makes $30 a year with no overhead must pay $3000.

Even in cases where sliding fee scales are available, clients may need to seek further financial help to afford the discounted fee. Intake administrators can help individuals 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 paid until after the individual finishes rehabilitation.
