Sliding Fee Scale - Drug and Alcohol Rehab Facilities - Lincoln, ME.

A kind of payment help that some alcohol and drug treatment programs can give to their clients is a sliding fee scale. If an individual can afford some degree of self-payment, these centers provide help on an individual basis that can greatly reduce treatment costs so that it is affordable for that particular person. How this typically works is the client will have to satisfy certain requirements for payment assistance, and will have to provide proof of income, information about how many dependents they have, what their household overhead is, etc. Based off this information intake administrators can determine the cost to the client using a sliding scale.

For example, if an individual in Lincoln only earns $18,000 a year, has 3 dependent children they are supporting 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 a year with no overhead may need to pay much more.

Even in cases where sliding fee scales are offered, people may need to seek additional assistance to afford the lesser amount. Intake admin can help people or family who are footing the bill for rehab apply for financing from a third party lender, and in some cases this money doesn't need to be paid back until after the person finishes rehabilitation.
