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

A kind of payment assistance that some alcohol and drug treatment programs can offer their clients is an adjustable fee scale. If an individual can afford any deposit or payment by themselves, these centers provide assistance on a case by case basis that can greatly reduce the cost of treatment so that it can be afforded by 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 information intake admins can determine what that client will need to pay, using a sliding scale.

For example, if an individual in Summit only earns $18,000 a year, has 3 dependent children they are supporting and $800 in monthly bills they may only need to pay $1000 for treatment, whereas a person who is single and makes $30,000/year with no overhead must pay $3000.

Even when sliding fee scales are offered, people may need to seek further assistance to pay the discounted amount. Intake admin can help people or their loved ones who are paying for treatment apply for financing from a third party lender, and in some cases this money doesn't need to be paid back until after the client completes rehabilitation.
