Is there a statute of limitations for collecting debt ?
Another good reason to have a written financial agreement with a patient is the statute of limitations for collecting on a debt. The statute of limitations is four years with a written financial agreement but only two years if the debt is found to be based on an unwritten agreement. The clock typically starts at the date of service.
