No, as this would be considered double-dipping or duplicate billing. There should be only one identified "client." If that person's treatment for an existing mental health diagnosis is requiring their partner or spouse to participate in treatment, then only that one client should be identified and billed. Remember that "marriage counseling" itself is not a billable service for insurance companies. Only services that are deemed "medically necessary" are covered by medical insurance.

Also called dual insurance.

A double billing cycle occurs when a credit card issuer processes two billing cycles in a single month instead of the usual one. This can happen due to changes in billing dates, such as when a cardholder's payment is delayed or if the issuer adjusts the billing schedule. As a result, the cardholder may receive two statements within the same month, leading to confusion about payment due dates and balances. It's essential for consumers to monitor their accounts closely to avoid potential late fees or negative impacts on their credit scores.
