Sliding Fee Scale - Drug and Alcohol Rehabilitation Facilities - Memphis, NY.

A type of payment assistance that some alcohol and drug treatment programs may give to their clients is an adjustable fee scale. If a client can afford some degree of self-payment, these programs provide assistance on a case-by-case basis that can greatly reduce rehab costs so that it can be afforded by that particular individual. How this typically works is the client will need 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 information intake administrators can determine the cost to the client using a sliding scale.

For example, if someone in Memphis earns $18,000/year, has 3 children and 800 dollars in monthly bills they may only need to pay $1000 for treatment, whereas a person who has no dependents and makes $30,000/year with no overhead may need to pay much more.

Even when sliding payment scales are offered, individuals may need to seek further financial help to pay this lesser amount. Intake staff can help people or their loved ones who are paying 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 finishes rehabilitation.
