Sliding Fee Scale - Drug and Alcohol Treatment Centers - Big Rock, TN.

One kind of payment assistance that some substance abuse treatment programs may offer their clients is a sliding fee scale. If an individual can provide some degree of self-payment, these centers provide help on a case-by-case basis that can lower the cost of treatment so that it is affordable for that particular person. This typically works like this: the individual will need to satisfy certain requirements for payment help 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 a person in Big Rock only earns $18K a year, has 3 children and $800 in monthly bills they may only need to pay $1000 for treatment, whereas a person who has no dependents and makes $30 a year with no overhead must pay $3000.

Even when sliding payment scales are offered, people may need to seek additional financial help to afford the lesser amount. Admissions 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 person completes rehab.
