Billing Scenarios for Nurses

How to label charges so every invoice makes sense the moment your clients see it.

1.
Overnight shift 12 hr; Weekend premium
Overnight weekend shift, 12 hours
Premiums and long shifts price differently, so showing both prevents confusion.
2.
Mileage 18 mi; Parking fee
Home visit across town with paid parking
Travel costs are separate from care and are easier to approve when split out.
3.
Wound care visit 60 min; Sterile supplies kit
Wound care with a fresh dressing
Supplies are consumables, so listing them keeps labor clear.
4.
IV setup and monitor 90 min; Infusion pump rental
IV therapy setup and monitoring
Set a clear due date, accepted methods, and late policy in the footer of every invoice.
5.
Late cancellation fee; Reserved hours hold
Client cancels inside 24 hours
You held time and could not rebook, so the policy must be visible.
6.
On-call availability fee; Minimum call-out 1 hr
Availability blocks your calendar, and a minimum covers short calls.

Common Nurse Invoicing Mistakes

Invoices go sideways when details are fuzzy. Use these quick fixes to prevent disputes and speed up payment.

Mistake
How to fix it
Putting medical details on the invoice breaks privacy rules and alarms clients.
Keep health details off invoices. Use neutral service names and store clinical notes separately, and check local rules.
Leaving off your professional license or provider ID delays payment and hurts trust.
Add your license number and provider ID to the header on every invoice so clients can verify credentials.
List the service, visit date, and start and stop times for each entry to match your time log.
List the service, visit date, and start and stop times for each entry to match your time log.
Set a clear due date, accepted methods, and late policy in the footer of every invoice.
Set a clear due date, accepted methods, and late policy in the footer of every invoice.
Charging tax on non-taxable care or missing tax on taxable items causes compliance issues.
Only tax items that are taxable where you work, such as certain supplies. Check local rules.
Adding extra hours or tasks without documented approval leads to pushback or short pay.
Record who approved changes and when, and reference the message or note on the invoice summary.

Nurses Invoice FAQs

Build accurate shifts, mileage, PPE, and charting time into your Nurses Invoice Template. Pricing models, adders, and compliance tips, clear answers.

How do I price a 12-hour shift versus a one-hour visit?

Bill shifts at an hourly or flat shift rate. Bill visits per hour or per visit. Example line item: “RN shift, 12 hrs @ $65/hr = $780.”

Can I add mileage for home visits?

Yes, when you use your car for patient travel. Note distance on the claim and your rate. Example: “Mileage, 28 miles @ $0.67/mile = $18.76.”

How do I bill for wound dressings, IV supplies, and PPE?

List supplies as pass-through items with unit counts. Add your agreed markup if allowed. Example: “Wound care kit x2 @ $18 = $36.”

How do night, weekend, and holiday rates work?

Use differentials for off-hours. State the rule in terms. Example: “Night differential, 10 pm–6 am, +$7/hr, 6 hrs = $42.”

Can I bill for care coordination and charting time?

Yes, if the client approved it. Cap it per visit to avoid surprises. Example: “Care coordination, 0.5 hr @ $55/hr = $27.50.”

What’s a fair late cancellation policy?

Charge when notice is too short to rebook. Post the window in your terms. Example: “Late cancel under 24 hrs, flat $95.”

Can I set a minimum shift?

Yes, common for private duty RNs and LPNs. State the minimum and what happens if released early. Example: “Minimum shift, 4 hrs @ $60/hr = $240.”

What details should appear on the invoice for a clinic client?

Add your NPI, license number, dates of service, patient initials, and units. Include rate, differentials, and supplies. Example: “LPN clinic coverage, 6 hrs @ $48/hr = $288.”
