Sliding Fee Scale - Alcohol and Drug Rehabilitation Facilities - Canaan, VT.

One form of payment help that some substance abuse treatment facilities may offer their clients is an adjustable fee scale. If an individual can provide any deposit or payment by themselves, these facilities provide financial aid on an individual basis which can lower treatment costs so that it can be afforded by that particular person. This typically works like this: the individual will have to meet certain criteria and 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 family and financial information admissions admins can determine what that client will need to pay, using a sliding scale.

For example, if a person in Canaan only earns $18,000 a year, has 3 children and 800 dollars in monthly bills they may only need to pay $1000 for treatment, whereas a person who is single and makes $30,000/year with no overhead may need to pay much more.

Even in cases where sliding payment scales are offered, people may need to seek further assistance to afford the lesser amount. Admissions admin can help individuals or their loved ones who are footing the bill 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 finishes rehab.
