I was curious about this and was wondering if people would be willing to share the following:
Generally, what your (or your office's) policy regarding clients who no show for appointments?
Do you charge clients the full or partial fee for missed appointments?
If so, how is this done? (e.g., send bill via mail, inform them at their next appointment, keep credit card on file and charge it directly, inform collection agencies, etc.)
Lastly, are you paid based on billable hours?
I have knowledge of some examples in my community of what people tend to do, but it seems to vary a lot and also is a relatively small sample. Thanks very much for any info you're willing to share.
