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

A kind of payment assistance that some substance abuse treatment facilities can give to their clients is a sliding fee scale. If an individual can provide some degree of self-payment, these centers provide help on a case by case basis that can greatly reduce the cost of treatment so that it is affordable for that particular client. This typically works like this: the client will need to satisfy certain 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 an individual in Underhill makes $18,000/year, has 3 children and 800 dollars in monthly bills they may only need to pay $1000 for rehab, whereas someone who has no dependents and makes $30,000/year with no overhead must pay much more.

Even in cases where sliding fee scales are available, individuals may need to seek additional financial help to afford the discounted amount. Admissions staff can help people or family who are footing the bill for treatment apply for financing from a third party lender, and in mostcases this money doesn't need to be repaid until after the client finishes rehab.
