Sliding Fee Scale - Drug and Alcohol Rehab Facilities - Alvord, IA.

A type of payment assistance that some drug treatment facilities can offer their clients is an adjustable fee scale. If an individual can afford some degree of self-payment, these programs provide assistance on an individual basis that can lower treatment costs so that it is affordable for that particular individual. How this typically works is the person will have to meet certain criteria and requirements for payment help 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 a person in Alvord makes $18K a year, has 3 children and 800 dollars in monthly bills they may only need to pay $1000 for rehab, whereas an individual 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, clients may need to seek additional financial help to afford the lesser fee. Admissions staff can help people or their loved ones who are paying 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 person completes rehab.
