Sliding Fee Scale - Alcohol and Drug Rehab Facilities - Pleasanton, TX.

A type of payment help that some drug rehabilitation programs may give to their clients is a sliding fee scale. If an individual can afford some degree of self-payment, these programs provide help on a case by case basis which can greatly reduce the cost of treatment so that it is affordable for that particular individual. This typically works like this: the person 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 intake administrators can determine the cost to the client using a sliding scale.

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

Even when sliding payment scales are offered, individuals may need to seek additional financial help to afford the discounted fee. Admissions 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 back until after the person completes treatment.
