Financial Assistance for Stuttering Problems
Financial Assistance for stuttering problems is available to fund the purchase of your SpeechEasy device.SpeechEasy devices can be purchased with cash, credit card, financing, health insurance and public assistance. SpechEasy devices can also be leased through the SpeechEasy Leasing Program and offer an option to buy at the end of the contract.
The easiest and fastest way to fund the purchase of your SpeechEasy device is through traditional cash or credit card payments. However, if these two options are unavailable for you, there are other choices.

SpeechEasy Financing Loan
For those with stuttering problems who qualify, Care Credit financing is available through most of our providers. In these cases, loan programs are available that can bring the payments down to as low as $138 per month. Talk to your providing SLP for more information.
Banks or local lending institutions, such as an employee credit union, may also be an appropriate resource for similar financing. Consult the local branch of your bank or credit union for more information on loan options.
SpeechEasy Health Insurance Reimbursement
SpeechEasy has contracted with Healthcare Reimbursement Solutions Inc. to offer financial assistance and help you seek reimbursement from your insurance provider at no charge. Since SpeechEasy is a new device, guidelines will vary depending on the health insurance provider. Some insurance companies may award partial or full reimbursement. However, unless you speak with your insurance provider in advance, you may be expected to pay the full cost of your device out-of-pocket.
