Results-Driven Outsourced Speech Therapy Billing Services

Looking for tangible results for your solo or group practice? Our outpatient speech therapy billing solutions are designed to provide measurable outcomes that positively affect your practice’s financial performance.

Our billing team reviews speech therapy documentation, payer-specific requirements, modifier usage, medical necessity, and authorization rules to reduce preventable claim errors and reimbursement delays.

SLP Billing & Coding Services

Our team reviews SLP CPT codes, such as 92523 and applicable therapy service codes, along with ICD-10 diagnosis support, documentation, and payer requirements to help support medical necessity.
Defending High-Value Evaluations (92523): Payers often downcode comprehensive evaluations. We verify your report includes distinct standardized scores for both language AND articulation to justify the higher reimbursement.
We follow payer-specific coverage rules for SLP to ensure accurate claims and proper use of modifiers (GN for Speech, KX for Cap Exception) to prevent rejections.

Eligibility Verification Services

We verify eligibility with insurers in real time to confirm coverage and determine co-pays, deductibles, and service limits.

Our insurance verification for speech therapy practices system flags services that require prior authorization, ensuring smooth claim submission and minimizing denials.

Claim Submission & Plan of Care Tracking

At Dastify Solutions, all claims are sent electronically using the CMS-1500 or EDI 837P form to ensure faster processing.
Plan of Care (POC) Tracking: We monitor physician certification timelines, flag missing signatures, and review payer requirements before claim submission to reduce medical-necessity and documentation-related denials.

Frequently Asked Questions

Do I need a physician order or referral for speech therapy claims?

Coverage rules vary by payer, but many insurers require a physician’s order or Plan of Care (POC) certification to process claims, especially for Medicare and specific private plans. We track these signatures to ensure they are on file before billing.

Why are claims rejected, and how can I avoid them?

Common causes include incorrect modifiers (missing the GN modifier), missing documentation, or eligibility issues. Verifying benefits, using correct modifiers, and submitting complete documentation help reduce denials.

Can speech pathologists bill Medicare?

Yes. Speech-language pathologists can bill Medicare Part B for medically necessary speech therapy services when provided by a licensed SLP under a physician-certified plan of care, with proper documentation and correct CPT coding.
