Sliding Fee Scale - Drug and Alcohol Rehab Programs - Pigeon Forge, TN.

A kind of payment help that some drug rehab centers can give to their clients is a sliding fee scale. If a client can afford some degree of self-payment, these programs provide help on a case by case basis that can lower treatment costs so that it can be afforded by that particular person. How this typically works is 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 admissions admins can determine the cost to the client using a sliding scale.

For example, if someone in Pigeon Forge earns $18,000/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 family and makes $30,000/year with no overhead may need to pay much more.

Even in cases where sliding payment scales are offered, clients may need to seek additional assistance to pay the lesser amount. Intake administrators can help clients or their loved ones 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 person finishes treatment.
