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

A kind of payment help that some alcohol and drug treatment facilities can offer their clients is an adjustable fee scale. If an individual can afford some degree of self-payment, these programs provide help on a case by case basis that can greatly reduce treatment costs so that it can be afforded by that particular person. How this typically works is the client 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 family and financial information intake administrators can determine the cost to the client using a sliding scale.

For example, if a person in Summitville 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 has no dependents and makes $30,000/year with no overhead may need to pay much more.

Even when sliding payment scales are available, people may need to seek additional financial help to afford the discounted fee. Intake staff can help people or their loved ones who are footing the bill for rehab apply for financing from a third party lender, and in some cases this money doesn't need to be paid until after the client finishes rehabilitation.
