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

One form of payment help that some alcohol and drug rehabilitation facilities may offer their clients is an adjustable fee scale. If an individual can provide any deposit or payment by themselves, these centers provide financial aid on an individual basis that can lower treatment costs so that it can be afforded by that particular person. How this typically works is the individual will need 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 family and financial information intake admins can determine what that client will need to pay, using a sliding scale.

As an example, if a person in Westwood 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 has no dependents and makes $30 a year with no overhead will pay $3000.

Even in cases where sliding payment scales are offered, clients may need to seek further assistance to pay the discounted fee. Intake staff 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.
