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

A type of payment assistance that some drug and alcohol treatment facilities can offer their clients is an adjustable fee scale. If an individual can provide some degree of self-payment, these facilities provide assistance on an individual basis which can greatly reduce the cost of treatment so that it is affordable for that particular individual. How this typically works is the person will need 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 intake admins can determine what that client will need to pay, using a sliding scale.

As an example, if someone in East Thetford makes $18K a year, has 3 children 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 in cases where sliding fee scales are available, individuals may need to seek further financial help to afford this discounted fee. Admissions administrators can help clients or family who are paying for rehab 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 rehab.
