Sliding Fee Scale - Drug and Alcohol Treatment Centers - Amherst, NY.

One form of payment assistance that some drug rehabilitation programs can offer their clients is a sliding fee scale. If an individual can afford some degree of self-payment, these programs provide financial aid on an individual basis which can lower the cost of treatment so that it can be afforded by that particular person. How this typically works is the individual will need to meet certain criteria and requirements for payment help and will have to provide proof of income, information about how many dependents they have, what their household overhead is, etc. Based off this information admissions admins can determine what that client will need to pay, using a sliding scale.

As an example, if a person in Amherst only earns $18K a year, has 3 children and 800 dollars in monthly bills they may only need to pay $1000 for rehab, whereas someone who has no dependents and makes $30,000/year with no overhead may need to pay much more.

Even when sliding payment scales are offered, people may need to seek additional financial help to pay the lesser amount. Intake admin can help people or family who are footing the bill for rehab apply for financing from a third party lender, and in mostcases this money doesn't need to be paid back until after the client completes rehabilitation.
