Sliding Fee Scale - Alcohol and Drug Treatment Centers - Merino, CO.

A type of payment assistance that some drug treatment centers can give to their clients is an adjustable fee scale. If a client can afford any deposit or payment by themselves, these facilities provide assistance on a case-by-case basis which can lower rehab costs so that it can be afforded by that particular person. How this typically works is the person will have to meet certain criteria and 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 administrators can determine what that client will need to pay, using a sliding scale.

For example, if an individual in Merino only earns $18,000/year, has 3 children and 800 dollars in monthly bills they may only need to pay $1000 for treatment, whereas a person who is single and makes $30,000 a year with no overhead may need to pay $3000.

Even when sliding fee scales are offered, individuals may need to seek additional financial help to pay the lesser fee. Intake staff can help people or family who are footing the bill for treatment apply for financing from a third party lender, and in some cases this money doesn't need to be repaid until after the client finishes rehabilitation.
