One kind of payment assistance that some substance abuse treatment facilities can give to their clients is an adjustable fee scale. If an individual can afford any deposit or payment by themselves, these facilities provide help on a case-by-case basis that can lower the cost of treatment so that it can be afforded by that particular client. This typically works like this: the client will have 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 information admissions administrators can determine what that client will need to pay, using a sliding scale.
For example, if a person in Killeen makes $18,000 a year, has 3 dependents and 800 dollars in monthly bills they may only need to pay $1000 for treatment, whereas an individual who is single and makes $30,000/year with no overhead must pay much more.
Even in cases where sliding fee scales are available, individuals may need to seek additional assistance to pay the lesser fee. Intake administrators can help people 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 until after the person finishes treatment.
