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

A kind of payment help that some substance abuse treatment facilities can give to their clients is an adjustable fee scale. If an individual can afford some degree of self-payment, these programs provide help on a case-by-case basis which can greatly reduce the cost of treatment so that it is affordable for that particular client. This typically works like this: the individual will need to satisfy certain 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 admissions admins can determine what that client will need to pay, using a sliding scale.

As an example, if someone in Hastings earns $18K a year, has 3 dependents and $800 in monthly bills they may only need to pay $1000 for treatment, whereas someone who has no family and makes $30,000 a year with no overhead may need to pay much more.

Even in cases where sliding payment scales are available, people may need to seek additional financial help to afford this discounted amount. Intake administrators can help clients 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 back until after the client completes rehab.
