Sliding Fee Scale - Alcohol and Drug Treatment Programs - Scenic, SD.

A type of payment help that some alcohol and drug rehab facilities may give to their clients is an adjustable fee scale. If a client can provide some degree of self-payment, these programs provide financial aid on an individual basis which can lower the cost of treatment so that it is affordable for that particular person. This typically works like this: the person will need 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 what that client will need to pay, using a sliding scale.

For example, if someone in Scenic earns $18,000 a year, has 3 children and $800 in monthly bills they may only need to pay $1000 for treatment, whereas a person who is single and makes $30 a year with no overhead may need to pay $3000.

Even when sliding payment scales are offered, people may need to seek additional assistance to pay the discounted amount. Intake administrators can help people or their loved ones who are paying for treatment apply for financing from a third party lender, and in some cases this money doesn't need to be paid until after the person finishes treatment.
