Sliding Fee Scale - Alcohol and Drug Rehabilitation Facilities - St. Johnsbury Center, VT.

A type of payment help that some substance abuse treatment programs can give to their clients is an adjustable fee scale. If an individual can provide any deposit or payment by themselves, these programs provide assistance on a case by case basis that can greatly reduce 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 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 the cost to the client using a sliding scale.

For example, if someone in St. Johnsbury Center makes $18K a year, has 3 dependent children they are supporting and 800 dollars in monthly bills they may only need to pay $1000 for rehab, whereas an individual who has no family and makes $30,000 a year with no overhead may need to pay $3000.

Even when sliding payment scales are available, individuals may need to seek additional financial help to pay this lesser amount. Intake administrators can help individuals or their loved ones who are footing the bill for rehab apply for financing from a third party lender, and in mostcases this money doesn't need to be paid back until after the person completes treatment.
