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

A type of payment assistance that some drug rehabilitation programs can offer their clients is a sliding fee scale. If an individual can afford any deposit or payment by themselves, these facilities provide help on a case-by-case basis which can lower the cost of treatment so that it can be afforded by that particular person. How this typically works is the person will need 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 family and financial information intake admins can determine what that client will need to pay, using a sliding scale.

For example, if someone in Fortuna makes $18,000/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 may need to pay $3000.

Even in cases where sliding fee scales are available, people may need to seek additional assistance to pay the lesser amount. Admissions administrators can help individuals or their loved ones who are paying for rehab apply for financing from a third party lender, and in some cases this money doesn't need to be paid until after the person finishes rehabilitation.
