A kind of payment assistance that some substance abuse treatment programs may give to their clients is a sliding fee scale. If an individual can afford some degree of self-payment, these centers provide help on an individual basis that can greatly reduce treatment costs so that it can be afforded by that particular client. How this typically works is the person will need to meet certain criteria and 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 admissions administrators can determine the cost to the client using a sliding scale.
As an example, if a person in Little Neck earns $18K a year, has 3 dependent children they are supporting and 800 dollars in monthly bills they may only need to pay $1000 for treatment, whereas an individual who has no dependents and makes $30,000/year with no overhead may need to pay $3000.
Even in cases where sliding fee scales are offered, clients may need to seek additional assistance to afford the lesser amount. Intake staff can help clients or family who are paying for rehab apply for financing from a third party lender, and in mostcases this money doesn't need to be paid back until after the individual finishes rehabilitation.
