Sliding Fee Scale - Alcohol and Drug Treatment Facilities - Erin, TN.

One form of payment assistance that some drug treatment facilities may offer their clients is an adjustable fee scale. If an individual can provide some degree of self-payment, these centers provide help on a case-by-case basis which can greatly reduce treatment costs so that it is affordable for that particular individual. This typically works like this: the individual will need to meet certain criteria and requirements for payment assistance, 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 admins can determine the cost to the client using a sliding scale.

As an example, if a person in Erin only makes $18,000/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 $30,000 a year with no overhead must pay $3000.

Even when sliding fee scales are available, clients may need to seek additional assistance to pay this discounted fee. Admissions staff 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 back until after the person completes rehabilitation.
