Sliding Fee Scale - Alcohol and Drug Treatment Programs - West Burke, VT.

A kind of payment help that some drug treatment facilities can offer their clients is an adjustable fee scale. If a client can provide some degree of self-payment, these programs provide assistance on a case-by-case basis that can lower treatment costs so that it can be afforded by that particular individual. This typically works like this: the person 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 West Burke only earns $18K a year, has 3 dependent children they are supporting and $800 in monthly bills they may only need to pay $1000 for treatment, whereas a person who is single and makes $30,000 a year with no overhead may need to pay $3000.

Even when sliding fee scales are offered, clients may need to seek further assistance to pay the discounted fee. Intake administrators can help individuals 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 individual finishes rehab.
