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

A type of payment assistance that some alcohol and drug treatment programs may give to their clients is a sliding fee scale. If a client can afford some degree of self-payment, these centers provide assistance on an individual basis that can lower rehab costs so that it is affordable for that particular individual. This typically works like this: the person will need 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 family and financial information admissions administrators can determine the cost to the client using a sliding scale.

As an example, if someone in Cumberland Foreside makes $18,000/year, has 3 dependent children they are supporting and 800 dollars in monthly bills they may only need to pay $1000 for rehab, whereas an individual who is single and makes $30,000/year with no overhead will pay $3000.

Even in cases where sliding payment scales are offered, individuals may need to seek additional assistance to afford the lesser amount. Admissions admin can help individuals or family 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 client finishes rehab.
