Handle them how? To post or not to post? To bill or not to bill? We post late charges, but it depends on the payer as to whether we submit a late bill or adjust off the late charge(s). In some cases, we can cancel the original bill and reprorate the account to combine final and late bills and create a new bill that includes the late charge(s). Our late charges aren't too bad, actually. We have educated and drilled the importance of timely charges into the charge-generating areas so they fully understand the repercussions. Our CFO once said something to the effect of "If a department director can't control his/her charges, then we'll find someone who can" and that got the point across. Julia Julia F.
