Sliding Fee Scale - Drug and Alcohol Treatment Programs - Salix, IA.

A kind of payment assistance that some drug rehabilitation centers may give to their clients is a sliding fee scale. If a client can provide any deposit or payment by themselves, these programs provide financial aid on a case-by-case basis that can greatly reduce treatment costs so that it can be afforded by that particular individual. How this typically works is the individual will need to meet certain criteria and requirements for payment help 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 intake administrators can determine the cost to the client using a sliding scale.

As an example, if a person in Salix only earns $18K a year, has 3 dependent children they are supporting and 800 dollars in monthly bills they may only need to pay $1000 for treatment, whereas an individual who has no dependents and makes $30 a year with no overhead must pay $3000.

Even in cases where sliding payment scales are offered, individuals may need to seek additional financial help to afford this discounted amount. Intake admin can help clients 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 individual completes rehab.
