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

One kind of payment assistance that some drug and alcohol rehabilitation facilities may give to their clients is a sliding fee scale. If an individual can provide any deposit or payment by themselves, these centers provide assistance on a case by case basis which can lower rehab costs so that it can be afforded by that particular person. This typically works like this: the client will need to meet certain criteria and 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 family and financial information intake admins can determine what that client will need to pay, using a sliding scale.

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

Even when sliding payment scales are available, clients may need to seek additional financial help to pay the discounted fee. Intake staff can help individuals 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 finishes rehabilitation.
