Sliding Fee Scale - Alcohol and Drug Rehabilitation Facilities - Desert Center, CA.

One kind of payment assistance that some drug rehab facilities may give to their clients is a sliding fee scale. If an individual can afford some degree of self-payment, these programs provide assistance on an individual basis that can lower treatment costs so that it is affordable for that particular client. This typically works like this: the individual will need to satisfy certain requirements for payment help 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 admins can determine the cost to the client using a sliding scale.

For example, if an individual in Desert Center makes $18,000 a year, has 3 dependents and $800 in monthly bills they may only need to pay $1000 for treatment, whereas a person who has no dependents and makes $30 a year with no overhead must pay $3000.

Even when sliding payment scales are offered, individuals may need to seek further financial help to pay this discounted fee. Admissions staff can help individuals or family who are footing the bill 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 finishes rehab.
