Sliding Fee Scale - Alcohol and Drug Treatment Facilities - Union, OR.

A type of payment assistance that some drug rehab centers may give to their clients is a sliding fee scale. If a client can provide any deposit or payment by themselves, these facilities provide help on a case by case basis that can greatly reduce treatment costs so that it is affordable for that particular person. How this typically works is the client will have 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 family and financial information admissions administrators can determine what that client will need to pay, using a sliding scale.

As an example, if a person in Union makes $18K a year, has 3 dependent children they are supporting and 800 dollars in monthly bills they may only need to pay $1000 for treatment, whereas a person who is single and makes $30,000 a year with no overhead must pay much more.

Even in cases where sliding payment scales are offered, individuals may need to seek additional assistance to afford this lesser amount. Intake staff can help individuals or their loved ones who are paying 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 client completes treatment.
