you are at work assisting a patient/client that you are working with to provide service
you have been told that you can bill for time spent working directly with the patient/client that you are working with to provide service each week.
you have also been told that 20% of your TOTAL time billed (NOT 20% of the time that you spend working directly with the patient/client) can be time spent talking with the patient/client's family each week.
what is an equation that I can work to figure out exactly how much time can be billed for each week talking with the patient/client's family (you would need to use a variable "x" that would stand for number of hours spent working directly with the patient/client that you are working with to provide service).
So what you are saying is you bill for both time spent with the client and time spent with client's family, however you have a maximum amount that you can charge when it comes to time spent with the family. The maximum amount is 20% of the time spent with the client.
If that is right then I have an equation for you.
Keep track of the time you spend with the client and keep track of time spent with the family.
Time spent directly with client = c
Time spent with client's family = f
Maximum billable time spent with client's family = m
