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

One kind of payment assistance that some drug and alcohol rehabilitation programs may offer their clients is a sliding fee scale. If a client can provide some degree of self-payment, these facilities provide help on a case-by-case basis that can lower treatment costs so that it can be afforded by that particular client. This typically works like this: the person will need 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 the cost to the client using a sliding scale.

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

Even when sliding fee scales are offered, people may need to seek further financial help to afford the lesser fee. Admissions staff can help people or family who are footing the bill for rehab apply for financing from a third party lender, and in mostcases this money doesn't need to be repaid until after the person completes rehabilitation.
