Sliding Fee Scale - Alcohol and Drug Treatment Facilities - Southbridge, MA.

One kind of payment help that some alcohol and drug rehabilitation centers can give to their clients is a sliding fee scale. If an individual can provide any deposit or payment by themselves, these facilities provide assistance on a case by case basis which can greatly reduce the cost of treatment so that it is affordable for that particular client. This typically works like this: the individual will have to meet certain criteria and requirements for payment assistance, 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 information intake administrators can determine what that client will need to pay, using a sliding scale.

For example, if someone in Southbridge only earns $18K a year, has 3 children and $800 in monthly bills they may only need to pay $1000 for treatment, whereas an individual who is single and makes $30,000/year with no overhead will pay much more.

Even when sliding payment scales are available, people may need to seek further assistance to pay this lesser fee. Admissions 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 person finishes treatment.
