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

One form of payment assistance that some substance abuse treatment centers can give to their clients is an adjustable fee scale. If an individual can afford some degree of self-payment, these facilities provide assistance on a case by case basis which can greatly reduce treatment costs so that it can be afforded by that particular client. This typically works like this: the individual will need to satisfy certain 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 administrators can determine what that client will need to pay, using a sliding scale.

As an example, if a person in Elmsford earns $18K a year, has 3 dependent children they are supporting and 800 dollars in monthly bills they may only need to pay $1000 for rehab, whereas someone who is single and makes $30 a year with no overhead may need to pay $3000.

Even when sliding fee scales are offered, clients may need to seek additional financial help to afford this lesser amount. Admissions administrators can help people or their loved ones 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 until after the person finishes rehabilitation.
