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

A kind of payment assistance that some alcohol and drug rehabilitation programs can give to their clients is a sliding fee scale. If a client can provide any deposit or payment by themselves, these programs provide assistance on an individual basis that can greatly reduce the cost of treatment so that it is affordable for that particular individual. This typically works like this: the client will have to meet certain criteria and requirements for payment help 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 family and financial information admissions admins can determine what that client will need to pay, using a sliding scale.

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

Even when sliding payment scales are available, people may need to seek additional assistance to afford this discounted fee. Intake staff can help clients or their loved ones who are footing the bill for treatment 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.
