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

A type of payment assistance that some drug and alcohol rehab facilities may give to their clients is a sliding fee scale. If a client can afford any deposit or payment by themselves, these programs provide financial aid on a case-by-case basis that can lower treatment 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 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 admissions administrators can determine what that client will need to pay, using a sliding scale.

For example, if a person in Devils Elbow only makes $18,000/year, has 3 dependents and 800 dollars in monthly bills they may only need to pay $1000 for treatment, whereas someone who is single and makes $30,000 a year with no overhead will pay much more.

Even in cases where sliding fee scales are available, clients may need to seek further financial help to afford the lesser fee. Admissions admin can help clients or their loved ones 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 paid back until after the client finishes treatment.
