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

A kind of payment help that some drug and alcohol rehabilitation programs may offer their clients is a sliding fee scale. If a client can afford any deposit or payment by themselves, these programs provide assistance on an individual basis that can greatly reduce rehab costs so that it can be afforded by that particular person. This typically works like this: the person will have to satisfy certain 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 family and financial information intake administrators can determine the cost to the client using a sliding scale.

As an example, if a person in Lisbon earns $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/year with no overhead must pay $3000.

Even in cases where sliding fee scales are offered, individuals may need to seek further financial help to afford the lesser amount. Intake staff can help clients 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 person completes treatment.
