About a sliding-scale fee
A sliding-scale fee means the price depends on your income and other factors. FindTreatment.gov lets programs report that they offer one, and more than half of substance use treatment facilities said they do in SAMHSA's 2022 survey.
What a sliding-scale fee usually covers, by level of care
Levels of care
Addiction treatment runs from detox and residential care, where you stay at the program, to PHP, IOP and outpatient counseling, where you live at home. Medication for addiction (MAT) can go with any of them. See IOP vs PHP vs outpatient care.
A sliding fee is set by your income and other factors. Ask the program what you'd pay a session or a day, and what proof of income to bring.
Call a program and ask
Call the program and ask them to verify your benefits; it's free and takes a few minutes.
- Do you accept a sliding-scale fee for substance use treatment, and for which levels of care?
- Are you in network for my exact plan, and is prior authorization needed?
- What would I pay a day or a week, and when is the next opening for an assessment?
Call the program yourself: Find Care doesn't take your insurance details, collect your name or pass anything to a program for you. This is general information, not a guarantee of coverage. What your plan pays depends on your plan, your state, whether the program is in network, and whether your plan decides the care is medically necessary. Call the number on your card, then the program, before you start.
