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

One kind of payment assistance that some drug and alcohol treatment facilities may give to their clients is an adjustable fee scale. If a client can afford any deposit or payment by themselves, these centers provide assistance on an individual basis which can lower the cost of treatment so that it can be afforded by that particular client. How this typically works is the individual 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 family and financial information intake administrators can determine what that client will need to pay, using a sliding scale.

As an example, if an individual in Signal Hill only earns $18,000 a 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 has no family and makes $30 a year with no overhead must pay $3000.

Even in cases where sliding fee scales are available, clients may need to seek further assistance to afford this lesser fee. Intake administrators can help clients or family 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 back until after the individual finishes treatment.
