Sliding Fee Scale - Drug and Alcohol Rehabilitation Facilities - Clarksburg, TN.

One form of payment assistance that some substance abuse treatment programs can offer their clients is a sliding fee scale. If an individual can afford some degree of self-payment, these programs provide assistance on a case-by-case basis which can lower rehab costs so that it can be afforded by that particular individual. How this typically works is the client will have 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 family and financial information intake administrators can determine the cost to the client using a sliding scale.

As an example, if a person in Clarksburg makes $18,000 a year, has 3 dependent children they are supporting and 800 dollars in monthly bills they may only need to pay $1000 for rehab, whereas a person who has no dependents and makes $30,000 a year with no overhead will pay much more.

Even when sliding payment scales are offered, clients may need to seek further assistance to pay the discounted amount. Intake staff can help people or family 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 paid until after the individual finishes treatment.
