Sliding Fee Scale - Drug and Alcohol Rehabilitation Programs - Livingston, NY.

One form of payment help that some alcohol and drug treatment centers may offer their clients is a sliding fee scale. If a client can afford some degree of self-payment, these centers provide financial aid on a case by case basis which can greatly reduce the cost of treatment so that it is affordable for that particular client. 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 admissions administrators can determine the cost to the client using a sliding scale.

For example, if a person in Livingston earns $18K a year, has 3 children and $800 in monthly bills they may only need to pay $1000 for rehab, whereas a person who has no dependents and makes $30,000/year with no overhead may need to pay $3000.

Even when sliding fee scales are available, people may need to seek further financial help to afford this lesser amount. Intake staff can help clients 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 repaid until after the individual completes rehab.
