Insurance & Funding
Most Families Pay Little or Nothing
Medicaid, private insurance, IDEA, and grants cover most AAC devices. We handle the paperwork so you can focus on your child.
Coverage Options
Multiple Paths to Funding
We work with all major coverage sources to find the best fit for your family.
Medicaid / OHP
Oregon Health Plan covers AAC devices as durable medical equipment for eligible children. We handle prior authorization and documentation.
Private Insurance
Many private plans cover speech-generating devices under DME or speech therapy benefits. We verify your coverage before any commitment.
IDEA / School Funding
Under the Individuals with Disabilities Education Act, schools may be required to provide AAC devices as part of a child's IEP.
Waiver Programs
Oregon's 1915(c) waivers and other state programs provide additional funding for children with developmental disabilities.
Grants & Nonprofits
We connect families with AAC-specific grants and nonprofit organizations when insurance coverage falls short.
Self-Pay & Payment Plans
For families without coverage, we offer transparent self-pay pricing and flexible payment plans to ensure no child goes without a voice.
How It Works
We Handle the Hard Parts
Our team manages the insurance process from start to finish — you just focus on your child.
Free Benefits Verification
We contact your insurance provider to verify coverage, deductibles, and prior authorization requirements at no cost to you.
SLP Evaluation & Documentation
A licensed speech-language pathologist completes the required evaluation and writes the letter of medical necessity.
Prior Authorization
We submit all required documentation and manage the prior authorization process, following up until approval is received.
Device Delivery & Training
Once approved, we deliver the customized device and provide hands-on training for your child, family, and care team.
Documentation
What's Typically Required
We help you gather every document — you don't have to figure this out alone.
- Letter of Medical Necessity from a licensed SLP
- Physician prescription or referral
- Diagnosis documentation (ICD-10 codes)
- Insurance card and member ID
- Prior evaluation reports (if available)
- IEP documentation (if school-funded)
Don't worry about gathering all of this yourself — we walk you through every step and help you obtain the documentation you need.
