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

One kind of payment help that some drug and alcohol rehab centers may give to their clients is an adjustable fee scale. If a client can provide some degree of self-payment, these programs provide financial aid on a case-by-case basis that can greatly reduce rehab costs so that it can be afforded by that particular person. How this typically works is the individual will need to meet certain criteria and 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 admins can determine the cost to the client using a sliding scale.

As an example, if a person in Georgetown makes $18,000 a year, has 3 children and 800 dollars in monthly bills they may only need to pay $1000 for treatment, whereas someone who has no family and makes $30,000 a year with no overhead must pay $3000.

Even in cases where sliding fee scales are offered, people may need to seek additional assistance to afford this lesser fee. Admissions staff can help people or their loved ones who are paying for treatment apply for financing from a third party lender, and in mostcases this money doesn't need to be paid back until after the person finishes treatment.
