Sliding Fee Scale - Alcohol and Drug Rehabilitation Centers - St. Johnsville, NY.

A type of payment assistance that some substance abuse treatment facilities may offer their clients is a sliding fee scale. If a client can provide some degree of self-payment, these centers provide help on a case by case basis that can lower treatment costs so that it is affordable for that particular person. How this typically works is the person will have to meet certain criteria and requirements for payment assistance, 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 admissions admins can determine what that client will need to pay, using a sliding scale.

For example, if a person in St. Johnsville makes $18K a year, has 3 dependents and 800 dollars in monthly bills they may only need to pay $1000 for rehab, whereas someone who has no family and makes $30,000/year with no overhead must pay $3000.

Even when sliding payment scales are available, individuals may need to seek further assistance to pay the discounted fee. Intake administrators 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 person finishes rehab.
