Sliding Fee Scale - Alcohol and Drug Rehab Programs - Newport, PA.

One kind of payment assistance that some substance abuse rehab facilities can offer their clients is a sliding fee scale. If a client can afford any deposit or payment by themselves, these facilities provide assistance on a case by case basis which can lower rehab costs so that it is affordable for that particular individual. This typically works like this: the client 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 intake administrators can determine the cost to the client using a sliding scale.

As an example, if someone in Newport only earns $18K a year, has 3 children and $800 in monthly bills they may only need to pay $1000 for treatment, whereas an individual who has no dependents and makes $30 a year with no overhead must pay $3000.

Even when sliding payment scales are available, individuals may need to seek additional financial help to pay the lesser amount. Admissions staff can help clients or family who are paying 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 client finishes rehabilitation.
