Sliding Fee Scale - Drug and Alcohol Treatment Programs - Polo, MO.

One kind of payment help that some substance abuse treatment facilities may give to their clients is an adjustable fee scale. If a client can afford some degree of self-payment, these programs provide help on a case by case basis which can lower the cost of treatment so that it is affordable for that particular client. This typically works like this: the individual will have to meet certain criteria and requirements for payment assistance, 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 admins can determine the cost to the client using a sliding scale.

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

Even in cases where sliding payment scales are offered, clients may need to seek further financial help to afford this lesser fee. Admissions administrators can help people or their loved ones 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 individual finishes treatment.
