Dear Sachin, The cost of therapy and who pays for it will vary across the United States. For children attending publicly funded schools, therapy is provided to them, if they qualify for services, at no cost, since the schools are tax-payer supported. Some private insurance companies will pay for treatment, at least for a set number of sessions, while others will not. So, some people must pay out-of-pocket for therapy. Therapy costs often vary by region, and also depending on whether the clinic is not-for-profit or for-profit. University clinics typically provide therapy services at reduced costs, since they are training students to become speech therapists. I hope this helps in answering your question. Regards, Lynne
