Sliding Fee Scale - Drug and Alcohol Treatment Facilities - Hidden Valley, PA.

A type of payment assistance that some drug treatment programs can offer their clients is a sliding fee scale. If an individual can afford some degree of self-payment, these programs provide help on a case-by-case basis which can lower the cost of treatment so that it is affordable for that particular individual. This typically works like this: the individual will have to satisfy certain requirements for payment assistance, 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 information admissions administrators can determine what that client will need to pay, using a sliding scale.

As an example, if someone in Hidden Valley makes $18,000 a year, has 3 dependent children they are supporting and $800 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 payment scales are available, clients may need to seek additional financial help to afford this discounted fee. Admissions staff can help clients or family who are paying for treatment apply for financing from a third party lender, and in mostcases this money doesn't need to be paid back until after the individual finishes rehab.
