Is there a charge for these services?
Paying for services rendered is a natural way
for the patient to own the treatment and complete the treatment or consultation
with gratitude. It also enables the practitioner to pursue this line of work
exclusively and full time. Christian Science practitioners are not funded
by the Christian Science church.
Patients determine their fees based on the
guidelines below and their own circumstances. No one is limited in their
expression of gratitude. The “widow’s mite,”donations, straight payment and
overflow are all accepted.
“Christian Science practitioners should make their
charges for treatment equal to those of reputable physicians in their respective
localities.” from The First Church of Christ, Scientist and Miscellany,
by Mary Baker Eddy p. 237
