It seems to be pretty common, but does not happen 100% of the time. Our first pedi did not charge for after hours calls, but our current one does, unless your child is then admitted to the hospital.
My pedi says that they may charge for after hours calls. From what I understand they will only charge if you are calling for a ridiculous reason, for example, calling at 2 in the morning to try and make an appointment.
I don't know if it's typical, but when were looking for pediatricians we were told by two different places that if you do an after hours call they will charge between $20-30.
