Sliding Fee Scale - Drug and Alcohol Rehab Facilities - East Norwich, NY.

A type of payment assistance that some substance abuse rehab facilities can give to their clients is a sliding fee scale. If a client can provide any deposit or payment by themselves, these facilities provide financial aid on a case-by-case basis that can lower treatment costs so that it is affordable for that particular person. This typically works like this: the individual 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 information intake admins can determine the cost to the client using a sliding scale.

For example, if someone in East Norwich earns $18K a year, has 3 dependent children they are supporting and $800 in monthly bills they may only need to pay $1000 for rehab, whereas a person who has no dependents and makes $30,000 a year with no overhead may need to pay $3000.

Even when sliding payment scales are offered, individuals may need to seek further financial help to pay this lesser fee. Intake staff can help individuals or family who are paying 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 individual completes treatment.
