Sliding Fee Scale - Alcohol and Drug Rehabilitation Programs - Discovery Bay, CA.

A kind of payment assistance that some alcohol and drug treatment programs may offer their clients is an adjustable fee scale. If a client can afford any deposit or payment by themselves, these programs provide assistance on a case-by-case basis which can greatly reduce the cost of treatment so that it is affordable for that particular individual. This typically works like this: the client will need to meet certain criteria and requirements for payment help 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 admissions administrators can determine what that client will need to pay, using a sliding scale.

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

Even when sliding fee scales are available, clients may need to seek additional financial help to afford this lesser fee. Intake staff can help clients or their loved ones who are paying for treatment apply for financing from a third party lender, and in mostcases this money doesn't need to be paid back until after the client completes rehabilitation.
