Sliding Fee Scale - Drug and Alcohol Rehab Programs - Ridgefield Park, NJ.

A type of payment assistance that some alcohol and drug treatment facilities 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 an individual basis which can greatly reduce rehab costs so that it is affordable for that particular client. How this typically works is the person will have to satisfy certain 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 intake administrators can determine the cost to the client using a sliding scale.

For example, if someone in Ridgefield Park only 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 rehab, whereas a person who has no dependents and makes $30 a year with no overhead may need to pay $3000.

Even in cases where sliding payment scales are available, clients may need to seek further financial help to afford this discounted amount. Admissions administrators can help people or family who are paying for treatment apply for financing from a third party lender, and in mostcases this money doesn't need to be repaid until after the client finishes rehabilitation.
