Sliding Fee Scale - Drug and Alcohol Rehabilitation Programs - Yatahey, NM.

A type of payment assistance that some alcohol and drug treatment programs can offer their clients is a sliding fee scale. If a client can provide any deposit or payment by themselves, these facilities provide assistance on a case-by-case basis which can lower rehab costs so that it is affordable for that particular client. This typically works like this: the individual 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 family and financial information admissions admins can determine the cost to the client using a sliding scale.

As an example, if someone in Yatahey earns $18K a year, has 3 dependent children they are supporting and $800 in monthly bills they may only need to pay $1000 for rehab, whereas an individual who has no family and makes $30,000 a year with no overhead may need to pay $3000.

Even when sliding payment scales are available, clients may need to seek additional assistance to afford the lesser fee. Intake staff can help individuals or family 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 back until after the person finishes rehab.
