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

A type of payment assistance that some drug and alcohol rehab facilities may give to their clients is a sliding fee scale. If a client can afford some degree of self-payment, these programs provide help on a case-by-case basis which can greatly reduce treatment costs so that it can be afforded by that particular client. How this typically works is the person will need 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.

As an example, if an individual in Okaton makes $18,000/year, has 3 dependent children they are supporting and $800 in monthly bills they may only need to pay $1000 for treatment, whereas someone who has no family and makes $30,000/year with no overhead may need to pay much more.

Even when sliding payment scales are offered, people may need to seek additional assistance to pay this lesser fee. Admissions admin can help individuals 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 repaid until after the client finishes rehabilitation.
