Sliding Fee Scale - Drug and Alcohol Rehabilitation Centers - Elgin, NE.

A kind of payment help that some substance abuse treatment centers may give to their clients is an adjustable fee scale. If a client can provide some degree of self-payment, these programs provide financial aid on an individual basis that can lower treatment costs so that it can be afforded by that particular person. This typically works like this: the client will need to satisfy certain 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 administrators can determine what that client will need to pay, using a sliding scale.

For example, if an individual in Elgin 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 may need to pay $3000.

Even when sliding payment scales are offered, clients may need to seek additional assistance to afford this discounted amount. Admissions staff can help clients or family who are footing the bill for treatment apply for financing from a third party lender, and in mostcases this money doesn't need to be paid back until after the client completes treatment.
