Sliding Fee Scale - Alcohol and Drug Treatment Centers - Berwick, IA.

A type of payment help that some substance abuse treatment programs may give to their clients is an adjustable fee scale. If an individual can afford any deposit or payment by themselves, these facilities provide help on a case by case basis which can greatly reduce treatment costs so that it can be afforded by that particular individual. This typically works like this: the client 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 administrators can determine the cost to the client using a sliding scale.

For example, if someone in Berwick earns $18,000/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 is single and makes $30,000 a year with no overhead may need to pay much more.

Even when sliding payment scales are offered, clients may need to seek additional assistance to pay this discounted amount. Intake staff can help individuals or family who are paying for treatment apply for financing from a third party lender, and in mostcases this money doesn't need to be repaid until after the individual completes treatment.
