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

One form of payment assistance that some substance abuse treatment facilities may offer their clients is an adjustable fee scale. If a client can afford any deposit or payment by themselves, these programs provide assistance on a case-by-case basis which can greatly reduce treatment costs so that it is affordable for that particular individual. How this typically works is the client 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 family and financial information intake administrators can determine the cost to the client using a sliding scale.

For example, if an individual in Chautauqua earns $18,000/year, has 3 dependent children they are supporting and 800 dollars in monthly bills they may only need to pay $1000 for treatment, whereas someone who is single and makes $30,000/year with no overhead must pay $3000.

Even in cases where sliding fee scales are offered, people may need to seek further assistance to pay this discounted amount. Intake staff can help clients or family who are footing the bill 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 completes rehabilitation.
