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

A type of payment assistance that some substance abuse rehabilitation programs can give to their clients is an adjustable fee scale. If an individual can afford some degree of self-payment, these centers provide help on a case-by-case basis which can lower rehab costs so that it is affordable for that particular individual. This typically works like this: the person will have 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 family and financial information intake admins can determine what that client will need to pay, using a sliding scale.

As an example, if an individual in Waterbury Center makes $18K a year, has 3 dependents and 800 dollars in monthly bills they may only need to pay $1000 for treatment, whereas someone who is single and makes $30 a year with no overhead must pay much more.

Even when sliding payment scales are offered, people may need to seek further assistance to pay the discounted amount. Admissions staff can help clients or family who are paying for treatment apply for financing from a third party lender, and in some cases this money doesn't need to be paid until after the individual finishes rehabilitation.
