​FEE INCLUDES THE THREE-MONTH PROGRAM AND ONE-MONTH FOLLOW UP

 

This FOLLOW UP Training Program to the FAST TRACK requires a non-refundable deposit, invoiced and paid through Paypal, when the Agreement is executed by both parties. The balance of the Fee is due on the 1st of the next month, following sign up and execution of the agreement. An Invoice will be sent from Paypal approximately one week before payment is due. Payment may be made through a Paypal account or by credit card. We do not keep credit cards on file for security reasons.

 

If the balance is not received by the first of the month, training will be suspended and all consultation/remote training canceled until payment is received.

 

IMPORTANT: ALL PHONE CONSULTATIONS AND ONLINE LIVE TRAINING ARE SCHEDULED IN ADVANCE WITH EACH Z GROUP CONSULTANT. Missed or canceled calls are NOT RESCHEDULED and CANNOT BE MADE UP at any point. Please understand that multiple offices are going through the same training process, simultaneously with your office. Any scheduling changes would result in a “domino effect” for all offices and a resultant scheduling nightmare.

 

IMPORTANT: Doctor must be present at ALL scheduled clinical sessions. Medical documentation (current protocols for SOAP notes, LMNs, Operative reports), and code selection will be discussed. These are NOT insurance sessions and NOT for the billers. This is CRITICAL to the success of the program.

Should the Doctor choose not to participate, the contract will be terminated and no refunds given.
