Sliding Fee Scale - Drug and Alcohol Rehabilitation Programs - Erin, NY.

One form of payment help that some drug and alcohol rehab programs may give to their clients is a sliding fee scale. If an individual can provide some degree of self-payment, these facilities provide assistance on a case-by-case basis that can greatly reduce rehab costs so that it can be afforded by that particular client. How this typically works is the person will need to meet certain criteria and requirements for payment assistance, 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 admissions admins can determine what that client will need to pay, using a sliding scale.

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

Even when sliding payment scales are offered, clients may need to seek further assistance to afford this discounted fee. Intake administrators can help clients or their loved ones who are footing the bill for rehab apply for financing from a third party lender, and in some cases this money doesn't need to be paid back until after the client finishes treatment.
