Sliding Fee Scale - Alcohol and Drug Rehab Centers - Belen, NM.

One kind of payment assistance that some drug and alcohol rehab programs may give to their clients is a sliding fee scale. If a client can afford some degree of self-payment, these facilities provide help on a case-by-case basis which can lower rehab costs so that it can be afforded by that particular client. This typically works like this: the person will have 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 admins can determine the cost to the client using a sliding scale.

For example, if a person in Belen earns $18K a year, has 3 children and $800 in monthly bills they may only need to pay $1000 for rehab, whereas someone who has no dependents and makes $30,000 a year with no overhead may need to pay much more.

Even when sliding fee scales are available, individuals may need to seek further financial help to pay the lesser amount. Intake staff can help clients or family 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 completes treatment.
