Do you take insurance?

K.O. Speech & Myo - Chicago operates as a private pay provider for services. While we are unable to accept insurance directly, we understand the financial considerations that families face. Therefore, we can provide families with a detailed superbill that contains all the necessary information for submitting claims to their insurance companies for possible out-of-network reimbursement. If you plan on seeking reimbursement from your insurance company, we suggest calling beforehand to learn more about the reimbursement process and your benefits.

When is my session payment due?

Each family is responsible for full, timely payment of all fees. All payments are due the day of service and are billed immediately after the visit. We accept payment through debit, credit, or HSA/FSA card.

All families have a right to receive a Good Faith Estimate (GFE). You can request a GFE at any time before you begin services.
