Sliding Fee Scale - Alcohol and Drug Treatment Facilities - Plains, MT.

A kind of payment help that some alcohol and drug treatment facilities may offer their clients is a sliding fee scale. If a client can afford some degree of self-payment, these programs provide financial aid on a case-by-case basis that can greatly reduce treatment costs so that it is affordable for that particular client. How this typically works is the client 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 information intake admins can determine the cost to the client using a sliding scale.

As an example, if an individual in Plains only makes $18,000/year, has 3 dependent children they are supporting 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 will pay $3000.

Even when sliding payment scales are offered, clients may need to seek additional financial help to pay the discounted amount. Admissions administrators can help people 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 paid until after the person completes rehabilitation.
