Sliding Fee Scale - Alcohol and Drug Rehabilitation Programs - Shafter, CA.

A type of payment assistance that some substance abuse rehab centers 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 an individual 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 meet certain criteria and requirements for payment help and will have to provide proof of income, information about how many dependents they have, what their household overhead is, etc. Based off this information intake admins can determine what that client will need to pay, using a sliding scale.

For example, if an individual in Shafter only earns $18,000/year, has 3 children and 800 dollars in monthly bills they may only need to pay $1000 for treatment, whereas a person who has no family and makes $30 a year with no overhead may need to pay much more.

Even when sliding payment scales are offered, individuals may need to seek additional financial help to afford the discounted fee. Intake admin can help clients or their loved ones 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 completes rehabilitation.
