Sliding Fee Scale - Alcohol and Drug Rehab Centers - Union, WA.

One kind of payment assistance that some drug and alcohol treatment centers can give to their clients is an adjustable 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 the cost of treatment 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 assistance, 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 family and financial information intake administrators can determine the cost to the client using a sliding scale.

As an example, if a person in Union only earns $18K a year, has 3 dependents and 800 dollars in monthly bills they may only need to pay $1000 for treatment, whereas a person who has no family and makes $30,000 a year with no overhead must pay $3000.

Even when sliding payment scales are offered, individuals may need to seek further assistance to pay this discounted fee. Intake staff can help clients 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 paid back until after the client finishes rehabilitation.
