Sliding Fee Scale - Drug and Alcohol Treatment Facilities - El Cerrito, CA.

One kind of payment assistance that some drug rehabilitation centers may give to their clients is a sliding fee scale. If an individual can afford some degree of self-payment, these centers provide assistance on an individual basis which can greatly reduce the cost of treatment so that it can be afforded by that particular person. This typically works like this: the person 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 family and financial information admissions administrators can determine what that client will need to pay, using a sliding scale.

As an example, if a person in El Cerrito earns $18,000 a year, has 3 children and $800 in monthly bills they may only need to pay $1000 for rehab, whereas an individual who has no dependents and makes $30,000 a year with no overhead will pay $3000.

Even in cases where sliding payment scales are offered, individuals may need to seek further financial help to pay this lesser fee. Intake administrators can help people or family who are paying for rehab 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.
