Sliding Fee Scale - Drug and Alcohol Treatment Programs - York, ME.

A kind of payment assistance that some substance abuse rehabilitation facilities may offer their clients is a sliding fee scale. If an individual can afford any deposit or payment by themselves, these programs provide assistance on a case by case basis which can lower rehab costs so that it can be afforded by that particular individual. This typically works like this: the client will have 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 admins can determine the cost to the client using a sliding scale.

For example, if an individual in York only earns $18,000/year, has 3 children and $800 in monthly bills they may only need to pay $1000 for rehab, whereas someone who has no dependents and makes $30 a year with no overhead must pay $3000.

Even when sliding fee scales are available, individuals may need to seek further financial help to afford the discounted fee. Intake admin can help people or family who are footing the bill for treatment apply for financing from a third party lender, and in mostcases this money doesn't need to be repaid until after the individual finishes rehab.
