Sliding Fee Scale - Alcohol and Drug Rehab Facilities - Inlet, NY.

A kind of payment assistance that some substance abuse treatment programs can offer their clients is a sliding fee scale. If a client can afford any deposit or payment by themselves, these centers provide assistance on a case by case basis which can lower treatment costs so that it can be afforded by that particular person. How this typically works is the individual will have to meet certain criteria and requirements for payment help and will have to provide proof of income, information about how many dependents they have, what their household overhead is, etc. Based off this information admissions administrators can determine what that client will need to pay, using a sliding scale.

For example, if a person in Inlet earns $18K a year, has 3 children and 800 dollars in monthly bills they may only need to pay $1000 for treatment, whereas someone who is single and makes $30,000/year with no overhead may need to pay $3000.

Even in cases where sliding payment scales are available, clients may need to seek further assistance to pay the lesser fee. Intake staff can help people or family who are footing the bill for rehab apply for financing from a third party lender, and in mostcases this money doesn't need to be paid until after the person completes treatment.
