Sliding Fee Scale - Alcohol and Drug Rehab Centers - Tuolumne, CA.

A type of payment assistance that some alcohol and drug treatment programs can give to their clients is a sliding fee scale. If an individual can afford some degree of self-payment, these centers provide help on a case by case basis which can lower treatment costs so that it is affordable for that particular individual. This typically works like this: the client will have to meet certain criteria and requirements for payment assistance, 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 admissions administrators can determine the cost to the client using a sliding scale.

For example, if someone in Tuolumne only makes $18,000 a year, has 3 children and 800 dollars in monthly bills they may only need to pay $1000 for treatment, whereas an individual who is single and makes $30,000 a year with no overhead will pay much more.

Even when sliding payment scales are offered, people may need to seek further assistance to afford this lesser amount. Intake administrators can help people 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 paid back until after the client completes treatment.
