Sliding Fee Scale - Drug and Alcohol Rehabilitation Centers - Shelburne, VT.

One kind of payment assistance that some substance abuse rehab programs can give to their clients is a sliding fee scale. If an individual can afford some degree of self-payment, these facilities provide help on an individual basis that can lower treatment costs so that it is affordable for that particular person. How this typically works is the person will need to meet certain criteria and requirements for payment help 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 the cost to the client using a sliding scale.

As an example, if a person in Shelburne 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 rehab, whereas a person who has no dependents and makes $30,000/year with no overhead may need to pay $3000.

Even when sliding payment scales are available, clients may need to seek additional assistance to afford this lesser fee. Admissions admin can help individuals 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 person completes rehab.
