Sliding Fee Scale - Drug and Alcohol Rehabilitation Centers - Latham, NY.

One kind of payment assistance that some alcohol and drug rehab programs may offer their clients is an adjustable fee scale. If a client can provide some degree of self-payment, these programs provide assistance on an individual basis that can greatly reduce treatment costs so that it is affordable for that particular individual. This typically works like this: the person will have 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 information intake administrators can determine what that client will need to pay, using a sliding scale.

For example, if someone in Latham earns $18,000 a year, has 3 dependents and $800 in monthly bills they may only need to pay $1000 for rehab, whereas someone who has no dependents and makes $30,000/year with no overhead will pay much more.

Even when sliding fee scales are available, individuals may need to seek further assistance to afford this discounted amount. Admissions staff can help people or their loved ones 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 finishes rehabilitation.
