Hi all

A slight variation on a number of pre-existing threads.

Do any practitioners/clinics charge patients separately for the use of treatment-related consumables during a consultation?

I would expect the answer is 'yes' for interdigital wedges and the like (it's very silly not to charge for them), but what about felt padding materials applied to a running shoe insole? To the patient this would seem a relatively innocuous substance, but we all know that MLA pads and plantar covers require quite a bit of it, and it's not cheap.

Similarly, 'sterilisation fees'.

Where do we draw the line?

Opinions/observations will be greatly appreciated
