Sliding Fee Scale - Drug and Alcohol Rehabilitation Facilities - East Schodack, NY.

A type of payment help that some alcohol and drug rehabilitation facilities can give to their clients is a sliding fee scale. If an individual can afford any deposit or payment by themselves, these programs provide assistance on an individual basis which can greatly reduce the cost of treatment so that it is affordable for that particular individual. This typically works like this: the individual 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 information admissions admins can determine what that client will need to pay, using a sliding scale.

As an example, if a person in East Schodack only 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 treatment, whereas an individual who has no dependents and makes $30 a year with no overhead may need to pay $3000.

Even in cases where sliding fee scales are offered, individuals may need to seek additional financial help to afford this lesser fee. Intake administrators can help clients 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 until after the client completes rehabilitation.
