Sliding Fee Scale - Drug and Alcohol Treatment Programs - Cheltenham, PA.

A kind of payment assistance that some substance abuse rehabilitation facilities may offer 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 can be afforded by that particular client. This typically works like this: the client will have to satisfy certain 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 family and financial information admissions administrators can determine the cost to the client using a sliding scale.

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

Even in cases where sliding payment scales are available, individuals may need to seek further financial help to pay the lesser amount. Admissions staff can help people or their loved ones 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 client finishes rehab.
