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

A kind of payment help that some drug and alcohol treatment centers may give to their clients is a sliding fee scale. If an individual can afford any deposit or payment by themselves, these programs provide assistance on a case by case basis that can greatly reduce treatment costs so that it can be afforded by that particular client. This typically works like this: the person will have to satisfy certain 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 admissions administrators can determine the cost to the client using a sliding scale.

As an example, if an individual in Story City earns $18,000 a year, has 3 dependents 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 must pay much more.

Even when sliding payment scales are available, clients may need to seek further assistance to pay the lesser amount. Intake administrators can help people or family who are footing the bill for rehab apply for financing from a third party lender, and in mostcases this money doesn't need to be paid back until after the client finishes rehab.
