Sliding Fee Scale - Drug and Alcohol Rehabilitation Programs - East Berkshire, VT.

A kind of payment help that some drug rehab centers may give to their clients is a sliding fee scale. If an individual can afford some degree of self-payment, these facilities provide assistance on a case-by-case basis which can lower treatment costs so that it is affordable for that particular person. This typically works like this: the client 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 what that client will need to pay, using a sliding scale.

For example, if someone in East Berkshire makes $18,000/year, has 3 dependents and $800 in monthly bills they may only need to pay $1000 for treatment, whereas someone who is single and makes $30 a year with no overhead must pay $3000.

Even when sliding fee scales are offered, clients may need to seek further financial help to afford this lesser amount. Intake staff can help clients or their loved ones 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 individual finishes rehab.
