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

A kind of payment help that some drug rehab programs may give to their clients is a sliding fee scale. If an individual can afford some degree of self-payment, these programs provide financial aid on a case-by-case basis that can greatly reduce treatment costs so that it can be afforded by that particular client. This typically works like this: 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 family and financial information admissions administrators can determine what that client will need to pay, using a sliding scale.

As an example, if an individual in Round Lake only makes $18,000 a year, has 3 children and $800 in monthly bills they may only need to pay $1000 for treatment, whereas someone who has no family and makes $30,000/year with no overhead may need to pay much more.

Even in cases where sliding payment scales are offered, individuals may need to seek further assistance to pay this lesser amount. Intake staff can help people or family who are paying for rehab apply for financing from a third party lender, and in mostcases this money doesn't need to be paid until after the client completes treatment.
