Sliding Fee Scale - Alcohol and Drug Rehab Facilities - Merrick, NY.

One kind of payment assistance that some substance abuse rehabilitation facilities may give to their clients is a sliding fee scale. If an individual can provide any deposit or payment by themselves, these programs provide assistance on an individual basis that can greatly reduce the cost of treatment so that it can be afforded by that particular client. How this typically works is the person will have to meet certain criteria and 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 admissions admins can determine the cost to the client using a sliding scale.

For example, if someone in Merrick only makes $18,000/year, has 3 children and 800 dollars in monthly bills they may only need to pay $1000 for rehab, whereas an individual who is single and makes $30 a year with no overhead will pay $3000.

Even in cases where sliding payment scales are available, people may need to seek further assistance to afford this lesser fee. Admissions administrators can help clients or family who are paying for treatment apply for financing from a third party lender, and in mostcases this money doesn't need to be paid until after the person completes rehabilitation.
