Sliding Fee Scale - Alcohol and Drug Rehab Centers - Algona, IA.

A type of payment help that some drug and alcohol treatment programs may give to their clients is a sliding fee scale. If an individual can provide some degree of self-payment, these facilities provide assistance on a case by case basis which can lower treatment costs so that it is affordable for that particular individual. How this typically works is the person will need to satisfy certain 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 intake administrators can determine what that client will need to pay, using a sliding scale.

As an example, if a person in Algona earns $18,000 a year, has 3 dependent children they are supporting and 800 dollars in monthly bills they may only need to pay $1000 for rehab, whereas someone who has no dependents and makes $30,000/year with no overhead must pay $3000.

Even in cases where sliding payment scales are offered, clients may need to seek further financial help to pay this lesser fee. Admissions staff can help people or family who are paying for rehab apply for financing from a third party lender, and in mostcases this money doesn't need to be paid back until after the individual finishes rehab.
