Sliding Fee Scale - Alcohol and Drug Rehabilitation Centers - Elmira, CA.

A kind of payment help that some drug rehab facilities may give to their clients is a sliding fee scale. If an individual can provide some degree of self-payment, these programs provide financial aid on an individual basis which can greatly reduce the cost of treatment so that it is affordable for that particular individual. This typically works like this: the individual will have to satisfy certain 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 admins can determine the cost to the client using a sliding scale.

As an example, if an individual in Elmira 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 rehab, whereas someone who has no family and makes $30,000/year with no overhead must pay $3000.

Even when sliding payment scales are available, individuals may need to seek further assistance to pay this discounted amount. Intake administrators can help clients 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 client finishes treatment.
