Your Insurance Company
Many private health insurance companies do provide benefits for
speech therapy services,
while many others do not include such benefits. It behooves you to call your insurance
company directly and ask for information regarding benefits for speech therapy. It is
also strongly suggested you request information in writing rather
than just verbal
information over the phone. Also remember many insurance companies will provide
benefits based on their particular reimbursement rate and you are advised to inquire
about specific reimbursement rates and percentages allowed.
Some insurance
companies provide insurance coverage for evaluations only and do not make it clear
their benefits are just for one evaluation session and not for ongoing therapy.
While we provide no direct insurance billing from this office, we are happy to provide you
with the appropriate super bills, which are receipts for speech therapy services containing
the relevant diagnosis and treatment codes. Periodically insurance companies may request
documentation regarding speech therapy services and we routinely provide evaluation and
updated progress reports as requested by insurance companies. However, it is important to
remember we are defined as the service provider and never imply nor suggest any specific
benefits your insurance company may or may not provide.
