Sliding Fee Scale - Alcohol and Drug Treatment Facilities - Richmond, MN.

A type of payment assistance that some drug treatment programs may offer their clients is an adjustable fee scale. If an individual can provide any deposit or payment by themselves, these centers provide help on a case-by-case basis that can greatly reduce treatment costs so that it can be afforded by that particular person. This typically works like this: 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 information admissions administrators can determine what that client will need to pay, using a sliding scale.

As an example, if an individual in Richmond makes $18K a year, has 3 dependents and $800 in monthly bills they may only need to pay $1000 for rehab, whereas a person who is single and makes $30,000 a year with no overhead must pay much more.

Even in cases where sliding payment scales are offered, clients may need to seek additional financial help to pay this discounted fee. Admissions administrators can help clients or family who are footing the bill for treatment apply for financing from a third party lender, and in some cases this money doesn't need to be repaid until after the individual finishes rehabilitation.
