Sliding Fee Scale - Alcohol and Drug Rehabilitation Programs - McClelland, IA.

A kind of payment help that some alcohol and drug treatment centers may offer their clients is a sliding fee scale. If a client can afford some degree of self-payment, these facilities provide assistance on a case by case basis which can greatly reduce the cost of treatment so that it can be afforded by that particular person. This typically works like this: the client will need 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 information intake administrators can determine the cost to the client using a sliding scale.

For example, if someone in McClelland earns $18K a year, has 3 dependent children they are supporting and $800 in monthly bills they may only need to pay $1000 for treatment, whereas someone who has no dependents and makes $30 a year with no overhead may need to pay $3000.

Even in cases where sliding fee scales are available, clients may need to seek further financial help to pay this discounted amount. Admissions staff can help individuals 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 paid back until after the person completes treatment.
