Pediatric Speech-Language Pathologists, Inc.

Do you take insurance?

We do not take insurance for payment. All fees are paid via credit card or ACH (directly from your bank). We provide a superbill for you to submit to your insurance company. If you have a PPO insurance plan, you may be able to get partial reimbursement for services since we are considered "out of network."

What forms of payment do you take?

All services are paid via credit card, ACH (directly from your bank) or check. If a child attends more than one session per week, payment may be made during the last session of the week for all the sessions attended that week.

Fees

Assessment Fees

Screenings:

Infant-Toddler Screening/Consultation

Ages 12 months-24 months only: $196 for a 60 minute screening including meeting with parent. If a full evaluation is then scheduled, your screening fee will be deducted from the evaluation fee. No written report is provided with a screening, as it is an informal consultation. If time spent is less than an hour, your fee will be prorated.

Articulation Screening $142-196

No report. This is generally when a parent isn't sure if a child needs therapy or if the issue is one that may be outgrown with time.

Who can't we screen?

**We cannot perform a screening for language, auditory processing or social language/play. These areas require standardized testing and more in-depth testing. Screenings are only available for Infant/Toddlers or simple articulation issues only. Screening are quick and informal.

Additional Services Fees

Additional services, such as report-writing, preparation of specific materials, letters to insurance companies, review of goals, etc. incur fees. Please inquire with the front office about these fees prior to requesting an additional service.

Off-site Consultation Fees

Off-site consultations are when we are asked to observe a child at school or meet with school staff. We charge 1.5 x our usual hourly rate, ($294 per hour) with a 2-hour minimum charge ($588).
