Sliding Fee Scale - Drug and Alcohol Treatment Facilities - North Palm Springs, CA.

One form of payment assistance that some drug and alcohol treatment programs may offer their clients is a sliding fee scale. If a client can afford some degree of self-payment, these facilities provide assistance 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 person 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 what that client will need to pay, using a sliding scale.

For example, if someone in North Palm Springs only earns $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 a person who has no dependents and makes $30,000 a year with no overhead may need to pay much more.

Even when sliding fee scales are offered, clients may need to seek additional financial help to pay the lesser fee. Intake administrators can help individuals 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 paid back until after the individual completes rehab.
