Hey there I was approached by a company to do a consulting job on a workman’s comp case to review billing and coding to see if fee’s were usual and customary for a plaintiff’s case, this is from an attorney. I have never done this type of consulting before and do not know how to price it out as they are asking for a rate. I do have 19 years in the medical billing and coding industry through. They are asking for the following:
Chart Review: $ AMOUNT/hour
Deposition: $ AMOUNT/hour
Court: $ AMOUNT/day
With an hourly retainer requested.
I had come up with the following amounts and think that this is reasonable:
Chart Review: $ 25/hour
Deposition: $ 150/hour
Court: $ 600/day
With an hourly retainer requested $ 50.
Am I being too low or to high in some of the area’s. Any help would be of great use. Thanks as this isn’t something you can easily research. I figure the chart review’s can be done at home so no traveling, but with traveling being done for any depositions or court dates I did increase the price. Any helps would be great thanks.
