Speech-Language Pathology (SLP) Medical Billing & Credentialing Services

Helping SLPs Maximize Reimbursements, Reduce Denials & Focus on Patient Care

At Oakview Medical Billing Solutions, we know Speech-Language Pathologists are critical in transforming lives—helping children find their voice, adults regain speech after strokes, and patients of all ages improve swallowing and communication.

But while you focus on care, insurance payers make it harder to get paid for your services.

We’ve built a specialized SLP medical billing and credentialing service to eliminate the barriers between you and your reimbursements. Whether you're in private practice, contracting through schools, early intervention programs, teletherapy, or multidisciplinary clinics—Oakview gets you credentialed, bills cleanly, follows up fast, and increases your collections.

Why SLP Medical Billing Is So Complex

SLP billing isn't just about submitting CPT codes—it’s about knowing the payer rules, documentation requirements, modifier usage, time tracking, authorization management, and eligibility quirks.

Let’s break down the biggest billing challenges SLPs face:

Modifier & Code Complexity

SLP sessions often require GP modifier (to denote therapy), along with time-based codes. Missing or misapplying these results in claim rejections or underpayment.

Inconsistent Reimbursement Rules

Every insurance carrier has different rules for frequency limits, group vs individual therapy, and progress documentation—and they change regularly.

Prior Authorization Burdens

Speech therapy typically requires pre-authorization, especially for Medicaid and private insurance. Authorization lapses or incorrect submission can cause thousands in lost revenue.

Pediatric & School-Based Therapy Rules

Billing for early intervention (EI) or school-based therapy requires specialized documentation and reporting often not covered in standard billing setups.

Credentialing Delays

Many SLPs lose months of revenue waiting to get credentialed. Payer portals, CAQH, and Medicaid applications are notoriously slow without a professional managing the process.
