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

One kind of payment assistance that some drug and alcohol rehabilitation facilities can offer their clients is a sliding fee scale. If a client can provide some degree of self-payment, these facilities provide financial aid on a case-by-case basis that can greatly reduce rehab costs so that it is affordable for that particular client. How this typically works is the client will have 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 family and financial information intake administrators can determine the cost to the client using a sliding scale.

As an example, if a person in Columbus City earns $18,000 a year, has 3 children and $800 in monthly bills they may only need to pay $1000 for treatment, 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 available, individuals may need to seek additional assistance to pay this discounted amount. Intake staff can help people or their loved ones who are footing the bill for rehab apply for financing from a third party lender, and in mostcases this money doesn't need to be repaid until after the individual finishes rehab.
