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

One kind of payment assistance that some substance abuse treatment centers may give to their clients is a sliding fee scale. If a client can afford any deposit or payment by themselves, these facilities provide assistance on an individual basis that can greatly reduce the cost of treatment so that it can be afforded by that particular individual. How this typically works is the person will need to satisfy certain 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 what that client will need to pay, using a sliding scale.

For example, if someone in Dows only earns $18,000 a year, has 3 children and 800 dollars in monthly bills they may only need to pay $1000 for rehab, whereas someone who is single and makes $30 a year with no overhead may need to pay much more.

Even in cases where sliding fee scales are available, individuals may need to seek further assistance to pay this discounted fee. Intake staff can help people or family who are paying 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 completes rehabilitation.
