It is not uncommon for drug treatment facilities in Santa Cruz to offer their clients payment help, for those people who are not able to cover a portion of or all of the costs associated with rehabilitation. How much payment help that is offered is often based on each client's financial and household status. Payment help can also come in the form of government grants which are used to subsidize the operation of the particular drug or alcohol rehabilitation facility the individual is wishing to receive treatment at. Other payment help provided by some drug rehabilitation facilities in Santa Cruz is known as a sliding fee scale, which is a lower fee arranged based off income and other factors. To learn more about what types of payment help are available it is best to consult with a treatment counselor who can review each individual's situation on a case by case basis and help those in need to apply for payment help when necessary so that they can get started in life saving treatment.
