Sliding Fee Scale - Drug and Alcohol Treatment Programs - Poulsbo, WA.

A kind of payment assistance that some substance abuse rehab programs can give to their clients is an adjustable fee scale. If a client can provide some degree of self-payment, these centers provide assistance on a case by case basis which can lower rehab costs so that it is affordable for that particular client. This typically works like this: the person 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 intake admins can determine what that client will need to pay, using a sliding scale.

As an example, if someone in Poulsbo earns $18,000 a year, has 3 dependent children they are supporting and $800 in monthly bills they may only need to pay $1000 for treatment, whereas an individual who has no family and makes $30,000 a year with no overhead may need to pay much more.

Even in cases where sliding payment scales are offered, individuals may need to seek additional assistance to afford the discounted amount. Intake 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 treatment.
