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

One kind of payment help that some drug and alcohol rehab programs may offer their clients is a sliding fee scale. If a client can provide any deposit or payment by themselves, these centers provide assistance on a case-by-case basis which can lower treatment costs so that it is affordable for that particular individual. This typically works like this: the client will need to meet certain criteria and 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 information intake administrators can determine the cost to the client using a sliding scale.

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

Even when sliding payment scales are offered, clients may need to seek additional financial help to afford this lesser amount. Admissions staff can help clients or family who are paying for rehab apply for financing from a third party lender, and in mostcases this money doesn't need to be repaid until after the person completes rehabilitation.
