********************************************************************************************************************
Preplacement and Post Placement Assessments require at least one visit to the home. A surcharge may be applied to cover travel time for the social worker. Actual mileage expenses are to be paid directly to the social worker at the rate of $.60 cents per mile and $50 per hour (round trip) for the social worker’s travel time. All travel fees must be paid in full before the final Preplacement Assessment is released.
The undersigned agree that when payment is received, Nathanson Adoption Services will complete the appropriate assessment. The fee agreement is not based on the outcome of the report nor the adoption proceeding. Once the process has begun fees are not refundable.
We the undersigned authorize Nathanson Adoption Services to release information relevant to our Assessment to our child-placing agency or attorney. We understand this consent can be rescinded at any time and shall remain valid until the completion of the adoption.
