Sliding Fee Scale - Alcohol and Drug Treatment Centers - Chatfield, OH.

One kind of payment help that some drug and alcohol treatment facilities may offer their clients is a sliding fee scale. If a client can provide any deposit or payment by themselves, these programs provide financial aid on an individual basis that can lower treatment costs so that it is affordable for that particular person. This typically works like this: the client will need to meet certain criteria and requirements for payment help and will have to provide proof of income, information about how many dependents they have, what their household overhead is, etc. Based off this information intake admins can determine what that client will need to pay, using a sliding scale.

As an example, if someone in Chatfield only earns $18,000/year, has 3 children and 800 dollars in monthly bills they may only need to pay $1000 for treatment, whereas an individual who has no family and makes $30,000/year with no overhead will pay $3000.

Even in cases where sliding fee scales are available, clients may need to seek additional assistance to afford this discounted amount. Intake admin can help people or family who are footing the bill for rehab 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 rehab.
