Sliding Fee Scale - Drug and Alcohol Treatment Centers - Alburgh, VT.

A type of payment assistance that some alcohol and drug rehabilitation programs can give to their clients is a sliding fee scale. If an individual can afford any deposit or payment by themselves, these facilities provide assistance on an individual basis which can greatly reduce treatment costs so that it can be afforded by that particular client. How this typically works is the individual will have to meet certain criteria and requirements for payment help 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 admissions admins can determine the cost to the client using a sliding scale.

As an example, if an individual in Alburgh makes $18,000 a year, has 3 dependents and 800 dollars in monthly bills they may only need to pay $1000 for treatment, whereas an individual who has no family and makes $30 a year with no overhead must pay much more.

Even when sliding payment scales are available, individuals may need to seek additional financial help to afford this discounted amount. Intake staff 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 paid back until after the person completes rehab.
