Sliding Fee Scale - Drug and Alcohol Treatment Facilities - Bellerose, NY.

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

As an example, if a person in Bellerose earns $18,000 a year, has 3 dependent children they are supporting and $800 in monthly bills they may only need to pay $1000 for rehab, whereas an individual who is single and makes $30,000 a year with no overhead may need to pay much more.

Even in cases where sliding payment scales are offered, clients may need to seek further financial help to pay this discounted fee. Admissions staff can help clients 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 repaid until after the person finishes treatment.
