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

A kind of payment help that some substance abuse treatment centers can give to their clients is a sliding fee scale. If a client can afford some degree of self-payment, these programs provide assistance on a case by case basis which can greatly reduce treatment costs so that it is affordable for that particular client. How this typically works is the person will need to satisfy certain 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 administrators can determine what that client will need to pay, using a sliding scale.

For example, if a person in Summertown makes $18K a year, has 3 children and $800 in monthly bills they may only need to pay $1000 for treatment, whereas an individual who has no family and makes $30 a year with no overhead will pay $3000.

Even when sliding fee scales are available, individuals may need to seek further financial help to pay the discounted fee. Admissions staff 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 paid until after the individual completes rehabilitation.
