Billing
To help families navigate the financial aspects of joining our community, we offer scholarship options. Please reach out to our admissions team for more details on these options.
Our standard daily rate is $500 which amounts to $15,000 per 30 days. On the day of admission, we ask for the initial thirty-day fee. This non-refundable payment supports our extensive admissions process. If admission occurs mid-month, we’ll apply a portion of the initial fee to the following month’s billing.
For convenience, payments can be made by credit card, though please note there’s a processing fee for credit card payments.
Billing statements are issued around the 25th each month and cover the upcoming month’s fee along with any expenses from the prior month. Payments are due by the 10th of each month. The first night of a resident’s stay is on us; however, the final day is billed at the standard rate, regardless of departure time. A 1% service charge is added to balances unpaid 45 days after the invoice date.
Our admissions staff is here to discuss any questions and guide you through the financial process to ensure peace of mind.
Medicaid/Medicare:
Medicaid/Medicare does not cover the cost of residential treatment. Residents with out-of-state Medicaid will need to work with us to apply for same in VT so that the costs of medication, medical visits, and lab work can be covered.
Insurance Reimbursement:
Spring Lake Ranch is a private pay facility. We do not participate with or bill to third party payers. Families that need financial assistance are encouraged to apply for Financial Aid.
