Good mornin' from somewhere in France

Someone said somethin somethin Hannibal in suspenders

[queerhannibal]

How much do you think Hannibal charged for his therapy sessions? He doesn't even have a secretary to take care of that. It is weird to picture him having to deal with insurance companies, or going after patients who haven't paid for weeks (I know he mostly has well off patients, but that doesn't mean that some wouldn't find excuses not to pay), and stuff like that. Also, do you think Will paid for it in the second half of s2?

I mean idk what the actual rates would be and I suppose that’s not really what the question is getting at... I feel like he’d probably charge towards the higher end of whatever was considered standard in the area, and that while he wouldn’t particularly advertise that he does sliding scale rates he absolutely would charge people differently depending on what they can afford

He doesn’t need the money and he doesn’t particularly care to hoard wealth for the sake of hoarding wealth. I feel like he would eschew the concept of hoarding wealth for the sake of hoarding wealth, honestly. And the same would go to people trying to get out of paying for things they could easily afford

Like yeah obviously a significant portion if not the vast majority of his clients are wealthy, and so he charges them a reasonable fee. And if they did attempt to get out of paying said reasonable fee, he would get after them about it very politely and then if they gave him trouble he’d refer them

On the other hand if he ever had a patient who for some reason couldn’t afford to pay for their sessions for a period of time, he would absolutely be understanding and work with them about it. I don’t think he’d take on a client for free unless they were REALLY interesting, but again, he doesn’t need the money. He’d charge them less or he’d let them skip payment on a session if they had good reason to

It is really funny to imagine him doing his own bookkeeping and having to deal with insurance companies on his own, but he really must have had to since he doesn’t have a secretary (which I think the show made out to be more unusual than it is, most therapists I’ve been to who have independent practices don’t employ anyone but themselves). I’m sure his financial records are impeccable, of course. I wonder what kinds of insurance he accepts??

I think legally for Hannibal to be able to call him his patient (and as such be protected from telling Jack about what they talk about) Will would have had to pay him something at some point. But I also literally cannot imagine Will actually having paid for any of that, nor can I imagine Hannibal asking him to. How weird would that be, after all that time of Will coming and hanging out without getting a bill? So either he was lying when he said that to Jack or maybe he was paying himself for the sessions, like recording in his financial records that Will gave him cash or something and then depositing that much of his own cash into his business account

I mean maybe you’re allowed to call someone your patient without them paying you idk. But no I don’t think Will was paying him at any point 

The real question is how much did Bedelia charge Hannibal for making her keep being his therapist after she’d initially told him to fuck off (s1 and 2a), and further how much she charged Will to sit and bitch at her (3b)

Gives “I intend to watch him change you” a whole new meaning.
