Yes! We are contracted providers with the Greensboro Children’s Developmental Services Agency (CDSA) and are registered service providers for North Carolina State Education Assistance Authority (NCSEAA) scholarship recipients.
We believe private pay benefits our clients as we are able to truly design a treatment plan that is best for your child. Insurance providers frequently limit the number of therapy sessions a child can receive, dictate when those sessions need to occur, and require various assessments that may not be necessary for your child.
An evaluation is needed unless your child has received a comprehensive evaluation from a speech language pathologist within the last 6 months.
No, a doctor's referral is not necessary in order to receive a comprehensive evaluation. After your child's evaluation is complete, your therapist will send your child's plan of care and a referral request to your physician prior to starting treatment sessions.
Individual session frequency and length are determined based on what is appropriate for each child. However, sessions are typically 30 minutes in length, possibly once or twice a week.
One of the benefits of our services is that we travel to you and your child. Our evaluations and treatment sessions can take place in the comfort of your own home, your child's day care center, or your child's school (sessions in a daycare or school setting require initial approval from the site). Consultation services may take place in your home or via videoconference.
Yes! When we provide in-home services we require a caregiver to be home at all times during therapy sessions. Not only is this for safety and liability reasons, but it is also for the benefit of your child. Children have the most progress when their caregivers are able to play an active role in their therapy sessions.
Under Section 2799B-6 of the Public Health Service Act, health care providers and health care facilities are required to inform individuals who are not enrolled in an insurance plan or coverage or a Federal health care program, or not seeking to file a claim with their plan or coverage, a Good Faith Estimate of expected charges, both orally and in writing or upon request or at the time of scheduling health care services.
