What if I don't have the money to pay?
Substance
Abuse Services offers discounted treatment for people who
cannot afford services in cases where the yearly family income
is between 0 percent and 300 percent of the federal poverty
level.
If you need treatment but don’t feel that you can
afford it, a financial representative at Central intake will
be glad to work with you. Call (209) 468-9600 to speak with a financial counselor. First, it will
be determined if you qualify for Medi-Cal insurance or other
third party payments. If not, you may be eligible for
financial assistance on a sliding fee scale that’s based on
income.
Please ask us for a Client Assistance Program (CAP) application. This
program is available to patients in need.
We are more than happy to answer any questions and
assist you in applying. Do
you have questions about the CAP program?
Brochures are available at Central Intake.
