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

A type of payment help that some substance abuse rehabilitation centers can give to their clients is a sliding fee scale. If a client can provide any deposit or payment by themselves, these facilities provide help on an individual basis that can greatly reduce the cost of treatment 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 help 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 admins can determine what that client will need to pay, using a sliding scale.

For example, if an individual in Young America earns $18K a year, has 3 children and 800 dollars in monthly bills they may only need to pay $1000 for treatment, whereas a person who has no family and makes $30,000/year with no overhead will pay much more.

Even in cases where sliding payment scales are available, people may need to seek further assistance to pay this discounted amount. Admissions staff can help individuals 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 client completes rehab.
