Sliding Fee Scale - Drug and Alcohol Treatment Centers - Banks, ID.

A type of payment assistance that some drug treatment programs may offer their clients is a sliding fee scale. If a client can afford any deposit or payment by themselves, these facilities provide financial aid on a case by case basis that can greatly reduce treatment costs so that it is affordable for that particular person. How this typically works is the individual 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 intake administrators can determine what that client will need to pay, using a sliding scale.

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

Even in cases where sliding payment scales are available, clients may need to seek additional assistance to afford the discounted fee. Admissions 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 until after the individual completes rehabilitation.
