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

One form of payment assistance that some alcohol and drug rehabilitation centers may offer their clients is a sliding fee scale. If a client can afford some degree of self-payment, these centers provide financial aid on an individual basis that can lower the cost of treatment so that it is affordable for that particular client. How this typically works is the client 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 information intake administrators can determine what that client will need to pay, using a sliding scale.

For example, if someone in Portville earns $18,000 a year, has 3 dependents and $800 in monthly bills they may only need to pay $1000 for rehab, whereas someone who is single and makes $30 a year with no overhead must pay $3000.

Even in cases where sliding fee scales are offered, individuals may need to seek additional financial help to afford this lesser amount. Intake staff can help clients or family who are footing the bill 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 client completes rehabilitation.
