Multiple notes can be linked to the same appointment. This is typically done when a non-billable note needs to be added. All notes, including non-billable notes, must be linked to a session. For example, adding an addendum to a progress note you have already signed, by linking a blank note.
If there wasn’t a session on the day the note was created, best practice is to link the note to the most relevant session, or the closest session that took place.
