Sliding Fee Scale - Alcohol and Drug Treatment Centers - Novato, CA.

One form of payment assistance that some drug and alcohol rehabilitation programs may offer their clients is a sliding fee scale. If an individual can afford some degree of self-payment, these programs provide help on a case by case basis that can lower treatment costs so that it is affordable for that particular individual. How this typically works is the client will have to satisfy certain requirements for payment help 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 a person in Novato only 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 an individual who has no family and makes $30 a year with no overhead must pay $3000.

Even when sliding fee scales are available, clients may need to seek additional assistance to pay the lesser amount. Admissions admin can help clients or their loved ones who are paying for treatment apply for financing from a third party lender, and in some cases this money doesn't need to be repaid until after the individual finishes rehab.
