Sliding Fee Scale - Drug and Alcohol Rehab Centers - Luzerne, PA.

One kind of payment help that some alcohol and drug rehab centers can give to their clients is an adjustable fee scale. If an individual can afford some degree of self-payment, these centers provide help on a case by case basis which can greatly reduce treatment costs so that it can be afforded by that particular individual. How this typically works is the person will have to meet certain criteria and 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 admins can determine what that client will need to pay, using a sliding scale.

As an example, if an individual in Luzerne earns $18K a year, has 3 dependent children they are supporting 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 will pay $3000.

Even when sliding payment scales are offered, clients may need to seek further financial help to afford this discounted amount. Intake 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 repaid until after the individual completes treatment.
