Sliding Scale Fee: *Not available for testing services*
Our sliding scale fee structure is designed to ensure that mental health services remain affordable and proportional to an individual’s financial capacity. The sliding scale fee system takes into account your income and family size to determine the cost of your mental health care. Key features of our sliding scale fee include:
- Income-Based Adjustments: Your fee is calculated based on your income, ensuring that those with lower incomes pay a lower fee, while those with higher incomes contribute more, aligning with their financial resources.
- Family Size Consideration: We also factor in the size of your family, as we understand that the financial responsibilities of a larger family may vary. This consideration allows us to tailor fees to individual circumstances.
- Regular Assessments: Our clinic conducts periodic financial assessments to ensure that your fees continue to accurately reflect your financial situation. This means that as your financial situation changes, your fees can be adjusted accordingly.
Our commitment to payment assistance and the sliding scale fee structure is rooted in the belief that everyone deserves access to mental health care without undue financial burden. We aim to create an inclusive and supportive environment where individuals can seek the help they need to lead healthier and more fulfilling lives. Your well-being is our priority, and we are here to work with you to make quality mental health care within reach.
