Sliding Fee Scale - Alcohol and Drug Rehab Facilities - Carthage, SD.

One kind of payment assistance that some alcohol and drug rehab centers can give to their clients is a sliding fee scale. If a client can afford any deposit or payment by themselves, these programs provide financial aid on an individual basis which can lower the cost of treatment so that it can be afforded by that particular individual. 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 intake administrators can determine the cost to the client using a sliding scale.

For example, if someone in Carthage only makes $18,000 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 a person who has no dependents and makes $30,000/year with no overhead must pay much more.

Even in cases where sliding fee scales are offered, clients may need to seek further assistance to afford this discounted fee. Intake staff can help clients or family who are paying for rehab apply for financing from a third party lender, and in mostcases this money doesn't need to be repaid until after the individual finishes rehabilitation.
