Sliding Fee Scale - Alcohol and Drug Treatment Centers - Aurora, ME.

A type of payment assistance that some alcohol and drug treatment programs can offer their clients is an adjustable fee scale. If a client can afford some degree of self-payment, these centers provide assistance on a case by case basis which can greatly reduce rehab costs so that it can be afforded by that particular individual. This typically works like this: the individual will have to meet certain criteria and requirements for payment help 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 intake admins can determine what that client will need to pay, using a sliding scale.

As an example, if an individual in Aurora 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 will pay much more.

Even in cases where sliding fee scales are available, individuals may need to seek additional assistance to afford this lesser amount. Admissions staff 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 repaid until after the individual completes rehabilitation.
