Sliding Fee Scale - Alcohol and Drug Rehabilitation Centers - Dresden, NY.

A type of payment help that some substance abuse treatment facilities may offer their clients is an adjustable fee scale. If a client can afford some degree of self-payment, these facilities provide assistance on an individual basis which can greatly reduce treatment costs so that it can be afforded by that particular individual. This typically works like this: the client will have 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.

For example, if a person in Dresden earns $18,000 a year, has 3 dependents and $800 in monthly bills they may only need to pay $1000 for rehab, whereas a person who has no family and makes $30,000/year with no overhead may need to pay $3000.

Even when sliding fee scales are available, individuals may need to seek further assistance to afford the discounted amount. Admissions staff can help individuals or family who are footing the bill for treatment 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.
