Sliding Fee Scale - Alcohol and Drug Rehabilitation Centers - Water Mill, NY.

A kind of payment assistance that some drug treatment programs may offer their clients is a sliding fee scale. If a client can afford some degree of self-payment, these centers provide financial aid on a case-by-case basis that can lower the cost of treatment so that it can be afforded by that particular client. How this typically works is the client will need to satisfy certain 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 information intake administrators can determine what that client will need to pay, using a sliding scale.

As an example, if someone in Water Mill only earns $18,000/year, has 3 dependents and 800 dollars in monthly bills they may only need to pay $1000 for treatment, whereas an individual who is single and makes $30 a year with no overhead may need to pay much more.

Even when sliding payment scales are available, clients may need to seek additional assistance to afford the discounted fee. Admissions administrators can help people or family 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 until after the client completes rehab.
