Funding Your Child's Therapy
Families are responsible for covering the cost of therapy sessions.
If you have private medical insurance or are a member of a hospital fund or scheme, you may be eligible to reclaim some of the expenses associated with Speech and Language Therapy. Please speak to your provider.
Many families have successfully utilised personal budgets from their child's Education and Health Care Plan to fund Speech and Language Therapy. Families with children who have a diagnosed disability may also apply for Disability Living Allowance to help cover the cost of therapy sessions.
Additionally, depending on your profession, you might be able to access professional benevolent funds that can contribute towards therapy expenses.
