You know AAC. You know your client.

But when it comes time to navigate medical insurance funding, things can get a little murky.

What are you responsible for?
What can manufacturers help with?
Where does clinical judgment come in?
And what happens when the funding process gets complicated?

This 1-hour conversation is about navigating those questions without losing your clinical judgment.

What we'll talk about

  • The SLP's role in insurance-funded SGD requests

  • Working with AAC manufacturers & DME suppliers

  • Funding documentation and medical necessity

  • Ethical gray areas and potential conflicts

  • What insurance may require vs. what clinical best practice recommends

  • Advocating for better, more accessible funding processes

This is for you if…

You're an SLP who has ever thought:

Then this conversation is for you.

“I know AAC. I know my client. But I don't really understand the insurance piece.”

Or:

“Wait… am I responsible for this, or is the manufacturer?”
