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

A type of payment help that some drug and alcohol treatment programs may offer their clients is a sliding fee scale. If an individual can afford any deposit or payment by themselves, these facilities provide assistance on a case-by-case basis that can greatly reduce the cost of treatment so that it can be afforded by that particular individual. This typically works like this: the individual will have to satisfy certain requirements for payment assistance, 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 intake admins can determine what that client will need to pay, using a sliding scale.

As an example, if someone in Lee Center makes $18,000/year, has 3 dependent children they are supporting and $800 in monthly bills they may only need to pay $1000 for treatment, whereas an individual who is single and makes $30,000 a year with no overhead may need to pay $3000.

Even in cases where sliding payment scales are available, clients may need to seek additional financial help to pay this discounted amount. Admissions staff can help individuals or their loved ones who are footing the bill for treatment apply for financing from a third party lender, and in mostcases this money doesn't need to be repaid until after the client finishes treatment.
