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

A kind of payment assistance that some drug and alcohol treatment centers may give to their clients is a sliding fee scale. If a client can afford some degree of self-payment, these centers provide financial aid on an individual basis that can lower the cost of treatment so that it can be afforded by that particular individual. This typically works like this: the client will have to satisfy certain requirements for payment help 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 admissions administrators can determine what that client will need to pay, using a sliding scale.

For example, if a person in Curlew earns $18,000/year, has 3 dependents and $800 in monthly bills they may only need to pay $1000 for treatment, whereas a person who is single and makes $30,000 a year with no overhead may need to pay much more.

Even in cases where sliding payment scales are available, clients may need to seek additional financial help to pay the lesser amount. Intake administrators can help clients 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 client finishes treatment.
