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

One kind of payment assistance that some drug and alcohol rehab programs can offer their clients is an adjustable fee scale. If a client can afford some degree of self-payment, these facilities provide help on a case by case basis that can greatly reduce treatment costs so that it is affordable for that particular person. This typically works like this: the person will have 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 information intake administrators can determine what that client will need to pay, using a sliding scale.

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

Even when sliding fee scales are available, people may need to seek additional financial help to afford the discounted amount. Intake staff can help clients or their loved ones who are footing the bill for treatment apply for financing from a third party lender, and in mostcases this money doesn't need to be paid back until after the person completes rehab.
