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

A kind of payment help that some drug rehab programs may offer their clients is an adjustable fee scale. If an individual can afford any deposit or payment by themselves, these facilities provide financial aid on an individual basis which can lower rehab costs so that it can be afforded by that particular client. 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 Portland only earns $18,000/year, has 3 dependents and 800 dollars in monthly bills they may only need to pay $1000 for treatment, whereas someone who has no family and makes $30,000 a year with no overhead will pay $3000.

Even in cases where sliding fee scales are available, people may need to seek additional financial help to pay the discounted fee. Admissions 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 repaid until after the person completes rehabilitation.
