Sliding Fee Scale - Alcohol and Drug Rehabilitation Centers - Litchfield, OH.

One form of payment assistance that some substance abuse treatment facilities may give to their clients is an adjustable fee scale. If an individual can afford any deposit or payment by themselves, these programs provide help on a case-by-case basis which can lower treatment costs so that it is affordable for that particular client. How this typically works is the person 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 administrators can determine what that client will need to pay, using a sliding scale.

For example, if a person in Litchfield 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 is single and makes $30,000/year with no overhead will pay $3000.

Even in cases where sliding fee scales are offered, clients may need to seek additional assistance to pay this lesser amount. Admissions staff can help individuals 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 back until after the person finishes treatment.
