Sliding Fee Scale - Alcohol and Drug Treatment Facilities - Caratunk, ME.

A type of payment help that some substance abuse treatment facilities can give to their clients is an adjustable fee scale. If an individual can afford any deposit or payment by themselves, these programs provide financial aid on an individual basis that can greatly reduce rehab costs so that it is affordable for that particular client. This typically works like this: the person will have to meet certain criteria and requirements for payment help 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 the cost to the client using a sliding scale.

For example, if someone in Caratunk only earns $18K a year, has 3 children and 800 dollars in monthly bills they may only need to pay $1000 for rehab, whereas a person who has no dependents and makes $30,000/year with no overhead may need to pay much more.

Even when sliding payment scales are offered, clients may need to seek further financial help to pay this lesser fee. Intake staff can help individuals or family who are paying for treatment apply for financing from a third party lender, and in mostcases this money doesn't need to be paid until after the individual completes treatment.
