As a teaching and educational facility
and not-for-profit agency, fees to the patient are significantly
lower that those charged by other agencies and private
practitioners. There are set fees for evaluation and treatment
which are reasonable. Individuals may inquire by telephone as to
the fee schedule. There is a charge for an evaluation. The program
session fee is based on individual treatment sessions conducted
throughout the semester, which is usually 12 weeks in length, and
runs parallel to the college schedule. The patient is billed for
the semester at the initiation of the program and payment may then
be made in three installments.
The Center does not accept direct
assignment of fees from insurance companies; however, assistance is
provided in filling out the necessary insurance forms so that the
patient may apply for reimbursement directly. The Center does
accept assignment of fees from Medicare only for audiologic
evaluations for qualified individuals. Those individuals should
inquire at the Center for further information.
