Sliding Fee Scale - Alcohol and Drug Rehabilitation Facilities - Friendship, ME.

A type of payment assistance that some drug rehabilitation facilities may offer their clients is a sliding fee scale. If an individual can afford some degree of self-payment, these centers provide assistance on an individual basis which 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 family and financial information admissions admins can determine the cost to the client using a sliding scale.

As an example, if a person in Friendship only earns $18,000/year, has 3 dependents and 800 dollars in monthly bills they may only need to pay $1000 for treatment, whereas an individual who has no dependents and makes $30,000 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 additional financial help to afford this lesser fee. Admissions staff can help individuals or family who are footing the bill for rehab apply for financing from a third party lender, and in mostcases this money doesn't need to be paid until after the client completes rehab.
