Sliding Fee Scale - Alcohol and Drug Rehabilitation Programs - Wakefield, MA.

A type of payment assistance that some alcohol and drug rehab facilities may offer their clients is a sliding fee scale. If a client can provide some degree of self-payment, these facilities provide assistance on an individual basis that can greatly reduce treatment costs so that it is affordable for that particular client. This typically works like this: the person will have 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.

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

Even in cases where sliding payment scales are available, people may need to seek further financial help to afford this discounted amount. Admissions administrators can help people or their loved ones who are paying for rehab apply for financing from a third party lender, and in mostcases this money doesn't need to be repaid until after the individual completes rehabilitation.
