Sliding Fee Scale - Drug and Alcohol Rehabilitation Centers - Boothbay Harbor, ME.

One form of payment assistance that some substance abuse rehab centers can offer their clients is a sliding fee scale. If a client can provide any deposit or payment by themselves, these centers provide help on an individual basis that can greatly reduce the cost of treatment so that it is affordable for that particular client. This typically works like this: the client will need to satisfy certain 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.

As an example, if someone in Boothbay Harbor only earns $18K a year, has 3 dependent children they are supporting and $800 in monthly bills they may only need to pay $1000 for rehab, whereas an individual who has no family and makes $30,000 a year with no overhead will pay much more.

Even in cases where sliding fee scales are offered, individuals may need to seek additional financial help to afford this discounted amount. Admissions admin 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 person finishes rehab.
