Sliding Fee Scale - Drug and Alcohol Treatment Centers - Sharon Springs, NY.

A type of payment assistance that some substance abuse treatment facilities can give to their clients is a sliding fee scale. If an individual can afford any deposit or payment by themselves, these facilities provide help on an individual basis which can lower the cost of treatment so that it is affordable for that particular client. This typically works like this: the client will need to satisfy certain 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 administrators can determine the cost to the client using a sliding scale.

For example, if a person in Sharon Springs makes $18,000/year, has 3 dependents and $800 in monthly bills they may only need to pay $1000 for treatment, whereas an individual who is single and makes $30 a year with no overhead will pay much more.

Even in cases where sliding fee scales are offered, individuals may need to seek further assistance to afford this discounted fee. Intake admin 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 client finishes rehabilitation.
