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

One form of payment assistance that some substance abuse treatment centers may give to their clients is a sliding fee scale. If an individual can afford some degree of self-payment, these facilities provide help on a case-by-case basis that can lower treatment costs so that it is affordable for that particular person. How this typically works is the individual will need to meet certain criteria and requirements for payment help 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 a person in Salem only earns $18K a year, has 3 dependents and $800 in monthly bills they may only need to pay $1000 for treatment, whereas a person who has no dependents and makes $30,000 a year with no overhead will pay $3000.

Even in cases where sliding payment scales are available, clients may need to seek further financial help to pay this discounted amount. Intake administrators can help individuals or their loved ones who are paying for rehab apply for financing from a third party lender, and in mostcases this money doesn't need to be repaid until after the individual completes treatment.
