Sliding Fee Scale - Drug and Alcohol Treatment Facilities - Swan Lake, NY.

One form of payment assistance that some substance abuse treatment programs can offer their clients is an adjustable fee scale. If an individual can provide some degree of self-payment, these programs provide assistance on a case-by-case basis that can greatly reduce treatment costs so that it can be afforded by that particular individual. This typically works like this: 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 administrators can determine what that client will need to pay, using a sliding scale.

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

Even when sliding fee scales are available, individuals may need to seek further financial help to afford this discounted amount. Intake staff can help individuals or family who are paying 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 individual finishes treatment.
