Sliding Fee Scale - Alcohol and Drug Rehab Centers - Blount, WV.

One form of payment assistance that some substance abuse treatment programs can offer their clients is a sliding fee scale. If a client can provide some degree of self-payment, these programs provide financial aid on a case by case basis which can lower rehab costs so that it is affordable for that particular client. How this typically works is the client will have to meet certain criteria and 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 admins can determine the cost to the client using a sliding scale.

As an example, if someone in Blount only earns $18,000 a year, has 3 dependent children they are supporting and 800 dollars in monthly bills they may only need to pay $1000 for treatment, whereas someone who is single and makes $30,000/year with no overhead may need to pay $3000.

Even when sliding fee scales are offered, people may need to seek additional assistance to afford this discounted amount. Intake administrators can help individuals 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 back until after the client finishes rehab.
