Sliding Fee Scale - Alcohol and Drug Rehab Programs - Chatham, NY.

A kind of payment assistance that some drug and alcohol rehab facilities can offer their clients is a sliding fee scale. If an individual can provide any deposit or payment by themselves, these programs provide assistance on a case by case basis which can lower treatment costs so that it can be afforded by that particular individual. This typically works like this: the person will need 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 family and financial information intake administrators can determine the cost to the client using a sliding scale.

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

Even in cases where sliding payment scales are offered, people may need to seek additional financial help to pay the discounted amount. 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 repaid until after the client finishes treatment.
