Please note that reimbursement is not guaranteed and is determined by your individual insurance plan.

A physician’s referral is not required to begin private-pay speech-language services. However, if you plan to submit a superbill to your insurance provider for possible out-of-network reimbursement, obtaining a referral may be recommended. Some insurance plans require documentation of medical necessity, and a referral from a physician may help support your reimbursement request.

Therapy frequency and session length are determined based on personalized needs, goals, and response to intervention.
