Sliding Fee Scale - Drug and Alcohol Rehabilitation Facilities - Alpine, NY.

A type of payment assistance that some drug and alcohol treatment centers may give to their clients is an adjustable fee scale. If a client can afford some degree of self-payment, these centers provide help on a case-by-case basis that can greatly reduce treatment costs so that it is affordable for that particular person. This typically works like this: the person will have to meet certain criteria and requirements for payment assistance, 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 information admissions admins can determine the cost to the client using a sliding scale.

As an example, if someone in Alpine only earns $18K a year, has 3 dependent children they are supporting and $800 in monthly bills they may only need to pay $1000 for rehab, whereas someone who is single and makes $30 a year with no overhead will pay $3000.

Even in cases where sliding payment scales are available, people may need to seek additional financial help to afford this discounted fee. Intake staff can help clients or their loved ones who are paying for treatment apply for financing from a third party lender, and in mostcases this money doesn't need to be paid back until after the person finishes treatment.
