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

A type of payment assistance that some substance abuse rehabilitation centers may give to their clients is an adjustable fee scale. If an individual can afford some degree of self-payment, these programs provide assistance on a case-by-case basis which can lower rehab costs so that it is affordable for that particular individual. This typically works like this: the person 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 family and financial information intake admins can determine the cost to the client using a sliding scale.

As an example, if a person in Vivian only makes $18K 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 an individual who has no family and makes $30,000/year with no overhead must pay $3000.

Even when sliding fee scales are offered, people may need to seek further financial help to pay this lesser fee. Intake administrators can help clients or their loved ones who are paying for rehab apply for financing from a third party lender, and in some cases this money doesn't need to be paid back until after the person completes treatment.
