Sliding Fee Scale - Drug and Alcohol Rehabilitation Centers - Phillips, ME.

One kind of payment assistance that some drug and alcohol rehab programs may give to their clients is a sliding fee scale. If a client can afford any deposit or payment by themselves, these facilities provide help on a case-by-case basis which can greatly reduce treatment costs so that it is affordable for that particular person. This typically works like this: the person will need to satisfy certain 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 family and financial information intake administrators can determine what that client will need to pay, using a sliding scale.

For example, if someone in Phillips only earns $18,000 a year, has 3 dependents and 800 dollars in monthly bills they may only need to pay $1000 for rehab, whereas a person who is single and makes $30 a year with no overhead must pay $3000.

Even when sliding payment scales are offered, individuals may need to seek additional assistance to pay the lesser amount. Intake staff can help people or their loved ones who are paying for rehab apply for financing from a third party lender, and in mostcases this money doesn't need to be paid until after the person finishes rehabilitation.
