IMMEDIATELY UPON CONCLUSION OF THIRD PARTY PAYMENT, THE CONSUMER'S ACCOUNT WILL BE REVIEWED AND ADJUSTED FOR APPROPRIATE LEVELS OF ASSISTANCE, AND A BILLING STATEMENT WILL BE GENERATED AND SENT TO THE ADDRESS ON RECORD. IF WITHIN SIXTY DAYS OF SENDING A BILLING STATEMENT NO PAYMENT IS RECEIVED, THE ACCOUNT SHALL BE PLACED INTO DELIQUENCY AND THE FOLLOWING STEPS WILL BE TAKEN: 1) PERMISSION TO PURSUE REQUESTED FROM PRIMARY THERAPIST. 2) IF ALLOWABLE, A COLLECTION LETTER IS SENT TO THE CONSUMER.
