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

One form of payment assistance that some drug treatment centers may offer their clients is an adjustable fee scale. If an individual can afford some degree of self-payment, these facilities provide assistance on a case by case basis which can lower rehab costs so that it can be afforded by that particular person. How this typically works is the person will need to meet certain criteria and 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 intake admins can determine the cost to the client using a sliding scale.

As an example, if an individual in Houghton 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 family and makes $30,000/year with no overhead must pay $3000.

Even in cases where sliding fee scales are offered, people may need to seek additional assistance to afford this lesser fee. Intake administrators can help clients or their loved ones who are paying for treatment apply for financing from a third party lender, and in mostcases this money doesn't need to be paid until after the individual completes treatment.
