Sliding Fee Scale - Alcohol and Drug Treatment Centers - Fort Montgomery, NY.

A type of payment assistance that some substance abuse treatment facilities can offer their clients is a sliding fee scale. If an individual can afford any deposit or payment by themselves, these programs provide financial aid on a case by case basis which can lower treatment costs so that it can be afforded by that particular individual. How this typically works is the client will need to meet certain criteria and 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 family and financial information intake administrators can determine the cost to the client using a sliding scale.

For example, if someone in Fort Montgomery 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 an individual who has no dependents and makes $30,000/year with no overhead will pay much more.

Even when sliding payment scales are available, people may need to seek further assistance to afford the lesser amount. Intake admin can help people or family 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 until after the client finishes rehabilitation.
