Sliding Fee Scale - Drug and Alcohol Treatment Programs - Groton, NY.

One form of payment assistance that some substance abuse treatment facilities can give to their clients is an adjustable fee scale. If a client can afford some degree of self-payment, these facilities provide help 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 client will have 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 information admissions administrators can determine what that client will need to pay, using a sliding scale.

For example, if an individual in Groton makes $18K a year, has 3 children and 800 dollars in monthly bills they may only need to pay $1000 for rehab, whereas an individual who is single and makes $30,000/year with no overhead must pay $3000.

Even in cases where sliding payment scales are offered, clients may need to seek further financial help to pay this discounted fee. Intake admin can help people or their loved ones who are footing the bill for treatment apply for financing from a third party lender, and in mostcases this money doesn't need to be paid back until after the person finishes rehabilitation.
