Sliding Fee Scale - Alcohol and Drug Rehab Facilities - Amherst, NH.

One form of payment help that some drug and alcohol rehabilitation programs may offer their clients is a sliding fee scale. If a client can afford any deposit or payment by themselves, these programs provide financial aid on a case-by-case basis which can greatly reduce treatment costs so that it can be afforded by that particular client. This typically works like this: the client will need to satisfy certain requirements for payment help and will have to provide information about how many dependents they have, proof of income, what their household overhead is, and the like. Based off this family and financial information admissions administrators can determine the cost to the client using a sliding scale.

For example, if someone in Amherst earns $18,000 a year, has 3 children and $800 in monthly bills they may only need to pay $1000 for treatment, whereas an individual who has no family and makes $30,000 a year with no overhead may need to pay $3000.

Even when sliding payment scales are available, people may need to seek additional financial help to pay the discounted fee. Intake staff can help individuals or family who are paying for treatment apply for financing from a third party lender, and in some cases this money doesn't need to be paid until after the individual completes rehabilitation.
