Sliding Fee Scale - Alcohol and Drug Rehabilitation Facilities - Sudbury, MA.

A type of payment assistance that some drug rehabilitation programs can give to their clients is a sliding fee scale. If a client can afford some degree of self-payment, these centers provide help on an individual basis which can lower treatment costs so that it can be afforded by that particular person. This typically works like this: the person will need to satisfy certain 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 family and financial information admissions admins can determine what that client will need to pay, using a sliding scale.

As an example, if a person in Sudbury only earns $18K a year, has 3 dependents and $800 in monthly bills they may only need to pay $1000 for treatment, whereas someone who has no dependents and makes $30,000 a year with no overhead must pay much more.

Even in cases where sliding payment scales are available, clients may need to seek further assistance to afford the discounted amount. Intake administrators can help clients or their loved ones who are footing the bill for treatment apply for financing from a third party lender, and in some cases this money doesn't need to be paid until after the client finishes rehabilitation.
