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

One kind of payment help that some alcohol and drug treatment centers may give to their clients is a sliding fee scale. If an individual can afford some degree of self-payment, these programs provide assistance on a case by case basis that can lower treatment costs so that it can be afforded by that particular individual. This typically works like this: the individual will have to satisfy certain requirements for payment help 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 the cost to the client using a sliding scale.

As an example, if someone in Harpersfield earns $18,000/year, has 3 dependent children they are supporting and $800 in monthly bills they may only need to pay $1000 for treatment, whereas a person who is single and makes $30,000/year with no overhead may need to pay much more.

Even when sliding payment scales are offered, clients may need to seek further assistance to afford this lesser fee. Admissions staff can help people 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 repaid until after the client completes treatment.
