Sliding Fee Scale - Alcohol and Drug Rehabilitation Programs - Philadelphia, TN.

A kind of payment help that some alcohol and drug rehab facilities can offer their clients is a sliding fee scale. If a client can provide any deposit or payment by themselves, these centers provide assistance on a case-by-case basis which can greatly reduce rehab costs so that it is affordable for that particular individual. How this typically works is the client will have to satisfy certain 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 administrators can determine what that client will need to pay, using a sliding scale.

As an example, if someone in Philadelphia earns $18,000/year, has 3 dependents and $800 in monthly bills they may only need to pay $1000 for rehab, whereas an individual who has no family and makes $30,000 a year with no overhead will pay much more.

Even in cases where sliding fee scales are available, individuals may need to seek further financial help to afford this lesser fee. Intake staff can help people or family who are paying 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 client completes treatment.
