There are many reasons why people may need speech therapy. Often, the need arises from an injury, such as a brain injury, or a sickness, such as dementia or oral/laryngeal cancer. The average cost for a speech therapy service is $200. After the Part B deductible is met, Medicare will pay 80% of eligible expenses. However, Medicare currently has a cap of $2,010 for speech and physical therapy combined, meaning they'll pay for only about 10 visits. Anything beyond 10 visits is the beneficiary's responsibility. For more information , ask me about Hospital Indemnity plan and Outpatient Therapy riders that can come in handy!!The rider will cover up to 30 visits, and it pays $50 per day regardless of what type of other health insurance your client may have. The $50 payment is more than enough to cover the 20% you would be responsible for. Talk to me about Hospital Indemnity policies and the outpatient therapy/chiropractic service benefit riders , which offer great benefits at a very reasonably cost. • Erika Seaborn, M.A. - Benefits Advisor (757)560-0896 #speechtherapy #outpatienttherapy #insurancebroker #insuranceagent #insurancebenefitsexpert #insurancrbenefits https://www.instagram.com/p/B5U-kCJloyH/?igshid=nuh6cpo9pf9w
