One form of payment assistance that some substance abuse treatment centers may offer their clients is an adjustable fee scale. If an individual can afford some degree of self-payment, these programs provide assistance on a case-by-case basis that can lower treatment costs so that it is affordable for that particular client. How this typically works is the individual will have to satisfy certain requirements for payment help and will have to provide proof of income, information about how many dependents they have, what their household overhead is, etc. Based off this information admissions admins can determine the cost to the client using a sliding scale.
As an example, if a person in Columbia only makes $18,000/year, has 3 dependents and $800 in monthly bills they may only need to pay $1000 for rehab, whereas someone who has no family and makes $30 a year with no overhead must pay $3000.
Even in cases where sliding payment scales are available, clients may need to seek further assistance to afford this discounted amount. Admissions staff can help people or their loved ones 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 until after the individual completes treatment.
