Sliding Fee Scale - Drug and Alcohol Rehabilitation Centers - Panama, NY.

One form of payment help that some drug rehabilitation programs can offer their clients is an adjustable fee scale. If a client can afford any deposit or payment by themselves, these facilities provide assistance on a case-by-case basis which can lower rehab costs so that it is affordable for that particular client. This typically works like this: the person will need to meet certain criteria and requirements for payment assistance, and will have to provide information about how many dependents they have, proof of income, what their household overhead is, and the like. Based off this family and financial information admissions admins can determine what that client will need to pay, using a sliding scale.

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

Even in cases where sliding payment scales are offered, clients may need to seek further assistance to afford this lesser amount. Intake administrators can help individuals or their loved ones who are footing the bill for rehab apply for financing from a third party lender, and in some cases this money doesn't need to be paid until after the person finishes rehabilitation.
