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

A kind of payment assistance that some alcohol and drug rehabilitation programs may give to their clients is a sliding fee scale. If an individual can provide some degree of self-payment, these facilities provide assistance on a case by case basis which can greatly reduce the cost of treatment so that it can be afforded by that particular individual. This typically works like this: the client will need to meet certain criteria and 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 family and financial information admissions administrators can determine the cost to the client using a sliding scale.

For example, if an individual in Woodstock earns $18K a year, has 3 dependents and 800 dollars in monthly bills they may only need to pay $1000 for treatment, whereas a person who has no family and makes $30,000/year with no overhead will pay $3000.

Even when sliding payment scales are available, individuals may need to seek additional financial help to pay the discounted amount. Intake 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 paid back until after the individual finishes rehabilitation.
