Sliding Fee Scale - Drug and Alcohol Rehabilitation Centers - Newfoundland, PA.

One form of payment assistance that some drug treatment centers may offer their clients is an adjustable fee scale. If a client can afford some degree of self-payment, these facilities provide help on an individual basis which can greatly reduce the cost of treatment so that it is affordable for that particular client. How this typically works is the person will have to meet certain criteria and 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 Newfoundland only 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 treatment, whereas an individual who has no dependents and makes $30,000/year with no overhead may need to pay much more.

Even in cases where sliding fee scales are offered, people may need to seek further assistance to pay this lesser fee. Admissions admin can help people or their loved ones who are paying for rehab apply for financing from a third party lender, and in some cases this money doesn't need to be paid until after the person completes treatment.
