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

One form of payment assistance that some substance abuse rehabilitation centers can offer their clients is a sliding fee scale. If a client can afford some degree of self-payment, these programs provide financial aid on an individual basis which can greatly reduce the cost of treatment so that it is affordable for that particular person. This typically works like this: the person will have to satisfy certain requirements for payment assistance, and will have to provide information about how many dependents they have, proof of income, what their household overhead is, and the like. Based off this information intake admins can determine what that client will need to pay, using a sliding scale.

As an example, if an individual in Swanton makes $18,000/year, has 3 children and $800 in monthly bills they may only need to pay $1000 for treatment, whereas an individual who is single and makes $30,000 a year with no overhead may need to pay much more.

Even in cases where sliding payment scales are offered, people may need to seek additional financial help to afford the lesser amount. Intake admin can help individuals or their loved ones who are paying 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 finishes rehab.
