Sliding Fee Scale - Alcohol and Drug Treatment Facilities - Maspeth, NY.

A type of payment help that some alcohol and drug treatment centers may offer their clients is an adjustable fee scale. If a client can provide some degree of self-payment, these facilities provide financial aid on an individual basis that can greatly reduce treatment costs so that it can be afforded by that particular person. How this typically works is the individual 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 admins can determine the cost to the client using a sliding scale.

For example, if someone in Maspeth only earns $18K a year, has 3 dependent children they are supporting and $800 in monthly bills they may only need to pay $1000 for treatment, whereas a person who is single and makes $30 a year with no overhead may need to pay $3000.

Even in cases where sliding payment scales are available, individuals may need to seek further assistance to pay this lesser amount. Intake staff can help people or family who are paying for treatment apply for financing from a third party lender, and in some cases this money doesn't need to be paid until after the client completes rehabilitation.
