Sliding Fee Scale - Alcohol and Drug Rehabilitation Facilities - South Salem, NY.

A kind of payment assistance that some substance abuse rehab facilities can offer their clients is a sliding fee scale. If an individual can afford some degree of self-payment, these programs provide help on an individual basis which can greatly reduce 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 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 intake administrators can determine what that client will need to pay, using a sliding scale.

As an example, if someone in South Salem only earns $18,000/year, has 3 children and $800 in monthly bills they may only need to pay $1000 for treatment, whereas someone who is single and makes $30,000 a year with no overhead must pay much more.

Even in cases where sliding fee scales are available, individuals may need to seek further financial help to afford this lesser amount. Intake staff can help people or family who are footing the bill for rehab 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 rehab.
