 Fees 

Payment for services at BCI is on a sliding-fee scale based on individual and/or family income. No one is turned away because of an inability to pay. However, refusal to pay fees when there is the ability to pay may result in discharge from treatment.

If you are experiencing a financial hardship, please notify your counselor. You may be eligible for a fee adjustment.  Keep us informed about any hardship and we will help you continue in treatment. Everyone is expected to pay what they can so we can keep the program going.

Third-party payments are also accepted and BCI will help ensure that patients receive maximum benefits within the structure of their particular insurance plans.

 

 Notice of Patient Rights

Medical and drug and alcohol information about BCI patients is protected by HIPAA and the federal Confidentiality Law. This notice describes how this information may be used and disclosed and how you can get access to it.
