Sliding Fee Scale - Drug and Alcohol Rehab Programs - Hartford, NY.

A kind of payment assistance that some substance abuse treatment centers may give to their clients is a sliding fee scale. If a client can afford some degree of self-payment, these programs provide assistance on a case-by-case basis which can lower the cost of treatment so that it can be afforded by that particular client. This typically works like this: the individual will have to satisfy certain 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.

For example, if an individual in Hartford only makes $18,000/year, has 3 children and 800 dollars in monthly bills they may only need to pay $1000 for treatment, whereas someone who has no dependents and makes $30 a year with no overhead may need to pay $3000.

Even in cases where sliding payment scales are offered, people may need to seek further assistance to afford the lesser fee. Admissions staff can help individuals 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 repaid until after the person finishes rehabilitation.
