Sliding Fee Scale - Drug and Alcohol Rehab Centers - Albert Lea, MN.

A type of payment assistance that some alcohol and drug treatment facilities can give to their clients is a sliding fee scale. If an individual can afford any deposit or payment by themselves, these programs provide help on a case-by-case basis that can greatly reduce the cost of treatment so that it is affordable for that particular client. This typically works like this: the individual 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 admissions admins can determine the cost to the client using a sliding scale.

For example, if someone in Albert Lea only earns $18,000/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 when sliding fee scales are offered, people may need to seek additional financial help to afford the lesser amount. Intake admin can help people or their loved ones who are paying for treatment 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.
