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

A kind of payment assistance that some drug and alcohol rehab centers can offer their clients is a sliding fee scale. If an individual can provide some degree of self-payment, these centers provide assistance on a case-by-case basis which can greatly reduce treatment costs so that it is affordable for that particular individual. 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 intake administrators can determine what that client will need to pay, using a sliding scale.

For example, if an individual in Lincoln makes $18K 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 $30,000/year with no overhead must pay $3000.

Even in cases where sliding fee scales are offered, clients may need to seek additional financial help to afford the lesser fee. Admissions staff can help individuals or family who are paying for treatment apply for financing from a third party lender, and in mostcases this money doesn't need to be repaid until after the individual finishes treatment.
