Sliding Fee Scale - Drug and Alcohol Rehab Programs - Fairlee, VT.

One kind of payment assistance that some substance abuse rehab programs may offer their clients is a sliding fee scale. If a client can afford any deposit or payment by themselves, these programs provide assistance on an individual basis that can greatly reduce rehab costs so that it is affordable for that particular client. How this typically works is the client 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 information intake administrators can determine what that client will need to pay, using a sliding scale.

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

Even when sliding payment scales are available, people may need to seek further financial help to pay this discounted fee. Intake staff can help people or family who are footing the bill 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 person completes treatment.
