Sliding Fee Scale - Alcohol and Drug Rehab Programs - Ashland City, TN.

A kind of payment help that some substance abuse rehabilitation facilities may give to their clients is a sliding fee scale. If an individual can afford some degree of self-payment, these centers provide financial aid on an individual basis which can lower the cost of treatment so that it can be afforded by that particular client. This typically works like this: the client will need to meet certain criteria and requirements for payment help 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 admins can determine what that client will need to pay, using a sliding scale.

For example, if an individual in Ashland City only earns $18,000 a year, has 3 dependents and $800 in monthly bills they may only need to pay $1000 for rehab, whereas an individual who is single and makes $30,000/year with no overhead may need to pay $3000.

Even when sliding payment scales are offered, people may need to seek further assistance to pay this lesser fee. Admissions staff can help clients 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 individual completes rehab.
