Sliding Fee Scale - Alcohol and Drug Rehabilitation Centers - Dakota City, IA.

A kind of payment help that some drug and alcohol rehabilitation centers can offer their clients is a sliding fee scale. If an individual can afford some degree of self-payment, these centers provide financial aid on an individual basis that can lower treatment costs so that it is affordable for that particular client. How this typically works is the individual will have to meet certain criteria and requirements for payment assistance, 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 admissions administrators can determine the cost to the client using a sliding scale.

As an example, if an individual in Dakota City only makes $18,000/year, has 3 dependent children they are supporting and $800 in monthly bills they may only need to pay $1000 for treatment, whereas a person who has no family and makes $30 a year with no overhead may need to pay $3000.

Even when sliding payment scales are offered, individuals may need to seek additional assistance to pay this discounted fee. Admissions staff can help clients or their loved ones who are footing the bill for rehab apply for financing from a third party lender, and in some cases this money doesn't need to be repaid until after the client finishes rehab.
