A kind of payment assistance that some substance abuse treatment programs can give to their clients is an adjustable fee scale. If an individual can afford some degree of self-payment, these centers provide financial aid on a case by case basis that can lower treatment costs so that it is affordable for that particular person. This typically works like this: the client will have to satisfy certain 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 information admissions administrators can determine the cost to the client using a sliding scale.
For example, if someone in Berkeley only makes $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 a person who has no family and makes $30,000 a year with no overhead must pay $3000.
Even in cases where sliding fee scales are available, individuals may need to seek further assistance to afford the discounted fee. Admissions admin can help clients or family who are paying for rehab apply for financing from a third party lender, and in some cases this money doesn't need to be paid until after the client completes rehabilitation.
