Sliding Fee Scale - Drug and Alcohol Treatment Programs - Brooklyn, IA.

One form of payment assistance that some alcohol and drug rehab programs may offer their clients is a sliding fee scale. If a client can provide some degree of self-payment, these facilities provide assistance on a case-by-case basis which can greatly reduce the cost of treatment 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 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 admins can determine the cost to the client using a sliding scale.

As an example, if an individual in Brooklyn earns $18,000 a 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 is single and makes $30,000/year with no overhead may need to pay much more.

Even in cases where sliding payment scales are available, clients may need to seek further assistance to afford the discounted fee. Intake administrators can help people or their loved ones who are footing the bill 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.
