Hi Michele,
When you charge a provider a Flat rate do you charge at the beginning of every month or the end.
margemib ???
Pay_My_Claims:
I personally charge at the first of the month. There is a 5% late fee after the 5th, and if not paid by the 10th, services are suspended on the 11th until payment is made.

Thanks Charlene!
Pay_My_Claims:
You are welcome Marge. Make sure you stipulate how you invoice, and penalize in your contract. As I know it is a struggle for many new billers who are trying to get that first client and are afraid of losing them, but if a provider is going to pay, they will pay. If you cut them off after a month, they know you are serious. Allowing them to go month after month, shows weakness. They will NEVER pay on time. This is why I try to (didn't on my last one) get a start up fee. If they don't pay, they got a month of billing done, i have some money to show for it until I can get it from them. Waiting 90 days for payment isn't acceptable for me.

Great Advice Charlene!
