Sliding Fee Scale - Drug and Alcohol Treatment Centers - Blackwater, MO.

A kind of payment help that some alcohol and drug rehab programs may give to their clients is a sliding fee scale. If an individual can afford some degree of self-payment, these programs provide help on a case-by-case basis which can greatly reduce the cost of treatment so that it is affordable for that particular individual. This typically works like this: the person will have 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 information intake administrators can determine what that client will need to pay, using a sliding scale.

As an example, if a person in Blackwater only makes $18,000/year, has 3 dependent children they are supporting and 800 dollars in monthly bills they may only need to pay $1000 for rehab, whereas a person who has no dependents and makes $30,000 a year with no overhead must pay much more.

Even in cases where sliding payment scales are offered, individuals may need to seek additional financial help to pay the lesser amount. Intake administrators can help people or family who are footing the bill for rehab apply for financing from a third party lender, and in mostcases this money doesn't need to be paid back until after the person finishes treatment.
