Sliding Fee Scale - Drug and Alcohol Rehab Centers - Sterling, NY.

A type of payment assistance that some alcohol and drug treatment facilities may give to their clients is an adjustable fee scale. If a client can provide some degree of self-payment, these facilities provide assistance on a case by case basis that can lower rehab costs so that it can be afforded by that particular person. How this typically works is the person will need 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 the cost to the client using a sliding scale.

For example, if someone in Sterling earns $18K a year, has 3 children and $800 in monthly bills they may only need to pay $1000 for treatment, whereas an individual who has no family and makes $30,000/year with no overhead may need to pay $3000.

Even in cases where sliding fee scales are available, individuals may need to seek further assistance to pay this lesser fee. Admissions administrators can help individuals or their loved ones who are paying for rehab apply for financing from a third party lender, and in some cases this money doesn't need to be repaid until after the individual finishes rehab.
