Sliding Fee Scale - Drug and Alcohol Treatment Programs - Elk Creek, CA.

A kind of payment assistance that some alcohol and drug rehabilitation centers may give to their clients is an adjustable fee scale. If an individual can afford some degree of self-payment, these programs provide financial aid on an individual basis which can lower rehab costs so that it can be afforded by that particular client. This typically works like this: the individual will have to meet certain criteria and requirements for payment assistance, 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 information admissions administrators can determine the cost to the client using a sliding scale.

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

Even when sliding payment scales are offered, clients may need to seek additional financial help to pay the discounted amount. Admissions administrators can help people or their loved ones who are footing the bill for rehab apply for financing from a third party lender, and in some cases this money doesn't need to be repaid until after the person completes rehabilitation.
