Beyond Communication offers services that fall under both the educational and healthcare models. In many circumstances, financial support is available to families from one or both of these systems.
Education
Our Targeted and Comprehensive Evaluations are educational services and therefore not billable to insurance. In some cases, families are able to procure full or partial funding for an evaluation of speech- language, literacy, or academic skills from their school district. We are often asked to perform independent educational evaluations in which we bill and accept payment directly from the school district. Compensatory education funds can be also used to pay for our evaluation and/or therapy services. Contact us to talk about your needs and possibilities.
Healthcare
In recent times, we have heard from families that accessing services through their health insurance is more necessary than ever, and we are responding to that message. As of mid-March 2025, BC is now an in-network provider of speech-language therapy services through Aetna and Horizon BCBS.
If your child needs therapy, but we are not in-network with your insurance company, we can help you submit for out-of-network reimbursement. To help you obtain reimbursement, we will provide you with an invoice that contains the relevant information your insurance company will seek when determining claim reimbursement. This information most typically consists of a CPT code (procedure code), an ICD-10 code (diagnosis code), our Tax ID and our NPI number (National Provider Index). These four pieces of information will equip you to seek reimbursement from your insurance company. If additional information is needed or forms are needed to be completed by the provider, please contact our office. We are happy to assist wherever we can.
