Sliding Fee Scale - Drug and Alcohol Rehabilitation Centers - Tupper Lake, NY.

One kind of payment assistance that some drug and alcohol rehabilitation centers may offer their clients is a sliding fee scale. If an individual can provide any deposit or payment by themselves, these facilities provide help on an individual basis which can greatly reduce the cost of treatment so that it can be afforded by that particular client. How this typically works is the client will have 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 the cost to the client using a sliding scale.

As an example, if someone in Tupper Lake only makes $18,000 a year, has 3 dependent children they are supporting and $800 in monthly bills they may only need to pay $1000 for rehab, whereas a person who has no family and makes $30,000/year with no overhead must pay $3000.

Even when sliding fee scales are offered, clients may need to seek additional assistance to pay the lesser amount. Intake staff 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 repaid until after the client completes rehabilitation.
