Topics include * protecting client rights in the billing and collection processes * setting and raising fees * providing informed consent about billing and fees * establishing and enforcing a written financial agreement with clients * dealing with insurance companies and other third parties * what to do when clients fail to pay agreed-upon fees * the pros and cons of using a billing service * billing issues specific to forensic mental health services * and more With its abundance of practical tips and case examples, this book is a must-read for all clinicians who are or wish to be in private practice.
