Sliding Fee Scale - Drug and Alcohol Rehab Centers - Wapello, IA.

One form of payment assistance that some alcohol and drug rehab programs can offer 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 which can greatly reduce treatment costs so that it is affordable for that particular individual. This typically works like this: the individual will have 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 admissions administrators can determine what that client will need to pay, using a sliding scale.

For example, if someone in Wapello makes $18,000/year, has 3 dependent children they are supporting and $800 in monthly bills they may only need to pay $1000 for rehab, whereas an individual who has no family and makes $30,000 a year with no overhead may need to pay $3000.

Even in cases where sliding fee scales are available, people may need to seek additional assistance to pay this lesser amount. Admissions staff can help people or their loved ones who are footing the bill for treatment apply for financing from a third party lender, and in some cases this money doesn't need to be repaid until after the person finishes rehabilitation.
