Freedom Consultancy launches innovative solution for low cost treatment

Freedom Consultancy, a major stakeholder in client funding of treatment services for substance abuse and dependency, addictive or behavioral disorders, today launched its latest innovation, the Second Chance Program, aimed at helping millions of underprivileged Americans access treatment services.

 

Second Chance provides people that need treatment but have no medical insurance, insufficient funds to pay privately or credit to qualify for a loan with a lifeline, through its ability to contract purchase treatment episodes from providers that are experiencing low census and wish to release the potential loss of an empty bed, at reduced rates.

 

Second Chance clients are provided with funding, in part made up of client contribution, discounted treatment fees and guaranteed sponsorship finance. This unique method of funding provides the ability to extend the availability of treatment to a larger population while guaranteeing service providers a considerable contribution toward the normal fee of an empty bed, that would otherwise be considered a total loss.

 

It has been reported by SAMHSA (Substance Abuse and Mental Health Services Administration) that as many as 20 million Americans suffer from addictive or behavioural disorders, with less than 10% accessing treatment services and over 40% unable to because of the high perceived costs, leaving over 18 million Americans suffering from addictions that can be effectively treated and potentially arrested. The Second Chance Program has been developed to help an underprivileged population get the help that was previously beyond reach, for a reasonable price.

 

If you or a loved one is suffering from an addictive, behavioral or mental disorder and require immediate help but cannot afford treatment, Second Chance is available to you.
