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

A type of payment help that some drug treatment centers may give to their clients is a sliding fee scale. If a client can afford any deposit or payment by themselves, these facilities provide assistance on an individual basis that can lower treatment costs so that it is affordable for that particular individual. This typically works like this: the person will have to satisfy certain requirements for payment help and will have to provide proof of income, information about how many dependents they have, what their household overhead is, etc. Based off this family and financial information intake administrators can determine what that client will need to pay, using a sliding scale.

As an example, if someone in Pukwana only earns $18K a year, has 3 children and 800 dollars in monthly bills they may only need to pay $1000 for rehab, whereas someone who has no dependents and makes $30,000/year with no overhead will pay $3000.

Even in cases where sliding payment scales are offered, individuals may need to seek further assistance to pay this lesser amount. Intake 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 repaid until after the client finishes treatment.
