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

A type of payment assistance that some drug and alcohol treatment programs can offer their clients is a sliding fee scale. If an individual can afford some degree of self-payment, these centers provide help on a case-by-case basis which can greatly reduce treatment costs so that it is affordable for that particular person. This typically works like this: the individual 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 admissions admins can determine what that client will need to pay, using a sliding scale.

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

Even when sliding fee scales are offered, clients may need to seek further assistance to afford the lesser amount. Intake staff can help individuals or family who are footing the bill for treatment apply for financing from a third party lender, and in some cases this money doesn't need to be repaid until after the individual finishes rehabilitation.
