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

One kind of payment assistance that some drug rehabilitation centers may give to their clients is an adjustable fee scale. If a client can provide some degree of self-payment, these facilities provide assistance on an individual basis that can lower the cost of treatment so that it can be afforded by that particular individual. 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 the cost to the client using a sliding scale.

For example, if someone in Northfield only earns $18,000/year, has 3 children and $800 in monthly bills they may only need to pay $1000 for rehab, whereas an individual who has no dependents and makes $30,000 a year with no overhead must pay $3000.

Even when sliding fee scales are available, people may need to seek additional assistance to pay the lesser amount. Admissions admin 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 individual finishes treatment.
