Sliding Fee Scale - Alcohol and Drug Rehab Facilities - Santee, CA.

One kind of payment assistance that some substance abuse rehab programs can give to their clients is an adjustable fee scale. If an individual can provide some degree of self-payment, these centers provide assistance on a case-by-case basis that can lower rehab costs so that it is affordable for that particular client. This typically works like this: the individual will need 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 family and financial information intake administrators can determine what that client will need to pay, using a sliding scale.

For example, if a person in Santee 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 someone who is single and makes $30,000/year with no overhead will pay much more.

Even when sliding fee scales are available, individuals may need to seek additional financial help to pay this lesser fee. Intake staff can help clients or their loved ones 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.
