Sliding Fee Scale - Drug and Alcohol Rehab Centers - Franklin Park, NJ.

One form of payment help that some alcohol and drug rehabilitation programs may give to their clients is a sliding fee scale. If an individual can afford some degree of self-payment, these programs provide help on a case-by-case basis which can lower treatment costs so that it can be afforded by that particular client. How this typically works is the client will have to meet certain criteria and 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 family and financial information intake administrators can determine the cost to the client using a sliding scale.

As an example, if someone in Franklin Park earns $18,000/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 family and makes $30 a year with no overhead may need to pay $3000.

Even in cases where sliding payment scales are offered, individuals may need to seek additional financial help to afford this lesser fee. Intake 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 repaid until after the individual completes treatment.
