Sliding Fee Scale - Drug and Alcohol Treatment Centers - Jamestown, PA.

A type of payment help that some substance abuse rehab facilities may offer their clients is a sliding fee scale. If an individual can provide some degree of self-payment, these centers provide assistance 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 individual will need to satisfy certain 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 information intake administrators can determine the cost to the client using a sliding scale.

As an example, if a person in Jamestown makes $18,000 a year, has 3 dependents and 800 dollars in monthly bills they may only need to pay $1000 for treatment, whereas a person who has no family and makes $30,000 a year with no overhead must pay much more.

Even in cases where sliding payment scales are offered, clients may need to seek further assistance to pay this discounted amount. Intake staff can help people or family who are footing the bill 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 client finishes rehab.
