Sliding Fee Scale - Drug and Alcohol Treatment Facilities - Seaman, OH.

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

As an example, if an individual in Seaman only makes $18,000/year, has 3 dependent children they are supporting and 800 dollars in monthly bills they may only need to pay $1000 for rehab, whereas a person who has no dependents and makes $30,000/year with no overhead may need to pay $3000.

Even when sliding fee scales are available, people may need to seek further financial help to afford this lesser fee. Intake staff can help people or family who are paying for treatment apply for financing from a third party lender, and in some cases this money doesn't need to be repaid until after the individual completes rehabilitation.
