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

One form of payment help that some alcohol and drug rehabilitation facilities 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 an individual basis that can lower the cost of treatment 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 proof of income, information about how many dependents they have, what their household overhead is, etc. Based off this family and financial information intake administrators can determine the cost to the client using a sliding scale.

As an example, if a person in Orland only 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 treatment, whereas a person who has no dependents and makes $30 a year with no overhead must pay $3000.

Even in cases where sliding fee scales are offered, people may need to seek additional financial help to afford the discounted fee. Admissions administrators can help clients or their loved ones 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 rehab.
