Sliding Fee Scale - Alcohol and Drug Treatment Facilities - Milbank, SD.

A type of payment assistance that some drug and alcohol rehabilitation centers can offer their clients is a sliding fee scale. If a client can afford some degree of self-payment, these centers provide financial aid on a case by case basis that can greatly reduce the cost of treatment so that it is affordable for that particular individual. How this typically works is the individual 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 admissions administrators can determine what that client will need to pay, using a sliding scale.

As an example, if a person in Milbank earns $18,000/year, has 3 children and $800 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 when sliding fee scales are available, individuals may need to seek further assistance to afford the lesser fee. Admissions staff can help clients 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 until after the person completes rehabilitation.
