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

A kind of payment assistance that some drug rehabilitation facilities may give to their clients is a sliding fee scale. If a client can afford some degree of self-payment, these facilities provide assistance on a case by case basis which can lower the cost of treatment so that it is affordable for that particular person. This typically works like this: the person will have to satisfy certain 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 what that client will need to pay, using a sliding scale.

As an example, if an individual in Andover earns $18,000/year, has 3 children and $800 in monthly bills they may only need to pay $1000 for treatment, whereas someone who is single and makes $30 a year with no overhead will pay much more.

Even in cases where sliding fee scales are available, individuals may need to seek additional financial help to afford this lesser fee. Admissions staff can help people or family who are paying for rehab apply for financing from a third party lender, and in some cases this money doesn't need to be paid back until after the person completes rehabilitation.
