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

A kind of payment help that some drug rehab centers may give to their clients is a sliding fee scale. If an individual can provide some degree of self-payment, these facilities provide assistance on a case-by-case basis which can greatly reduce treatment costs so that it is affordable for that particular person. How this typically works is the individual 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 family and financial information intake administrators can determine the cost to the client using a sliding scale.

For example, if a person in Old Chatham 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 someone who is single and makes $30,000/year with no overhead may need to pay $3000.

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