Sliding Fee Scale - Alcohol and Drug Rehab Programs - Elliston, VA.

One kind of payment assistance that some drug and alcohol rehabilitation programs may give to their clients is a sliding fee scale. If an individual can afford some degree of self-payment, these programs provide help on a case by case basis which can lower treatment costs so that it can be afforded by that particular person. How this typically works is the person will need to satisfy certain requirements for payment help 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 admissions admins can determine what that client will need to pay, using a sliding scale.

For example, if a person in Elliston only makes $18,000 a year, has 3 children and $800 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 must pay $3000.

Even when sliding payment scales are available, people may need to seek additional assistance to pay the lesser fee. Intake staff can help clients or family who are footing the bill for treatment 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 rehab.
