Sliding Fee Scale - Alcohol and Drug Treatment Centers - Brimhall, NM.

A type of payment assistance that some substance abuse treatment programs may give to their clients is a sliding fee scale. If an individual can provide some degree of self-payment, these programs provide financial aid on a case by case basis which can greatly reduce the cost of treatment so that it is affordable for that particular client. How this typically works is the client will have 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 information intake administrators can determine what that client will need to pay, using a sliding scale.

For example, if an individual in Brimhall only earns $18,000 a year, has 3 dependents and 800 dollars in monthly bills they may only need to pay $1000 for treatment, whereas someone who is single and makes $30,000 a year with no overhead will pay much more.

Even in cases where sliding fee scales are available, clients may need to seek further assistance to afford this discounted fee. Intake administrators can help people 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 paid until after the person finishes treatment.
