Services

Services provided by KM Pediatric Therapy

KM Pediatric Therapy now offers AAC consultation. Alternative Augmentative Communication (AAC) involves software that increases a child's ability to communicate needs, wants, ideas, choices, questions, greetings, self advocacy etc. Children who have difficulty communicating verbally due to a variety of diagnoses, such as Autism Spectrum Disorder, Dysarthria, Apraxia, Down Syndrome, etc. can benefit significantly from use of the right AAC device. Research shows that use of AAC does NOT impede the development of verbal speech; rather, it helps scaffold for development of these skills. Consultations are available by appointment only. Appointments are one hour and include the following:

  • Review current communicative status
  • Review past therapy history, including any past attempts at AAC use
  • Outline the communication priorities for your child
  • Discuss system options that would be functional options for your child
  • Trial communication software to determine what your child responds to best
  • Observation of child's strengths/weaknesses with AAC
  • Provide techniques, strategies and ideas for modeling and introductory use of AAC
  • Recommendations for next steps

Consultations are $175, payable via credit card prior to day of consultation. A consultation is not a formal AAC evaluation. A consultation will serve to determine if your child would benefit from a full AAC evaluation. If parents elect to pursue a full AAC evaluation, next steps will be outlined for completion of that process.

To learn more or book an appointment, please email Stephanie Molina at smolina@kmpediatrictherapy.com

Speech Language Pathology

KM Pediatric Therapy is a private practice focused on providing skilled speech and language pathology services to children of all ages. Services are provided within the child’s natural environment, which could be their private home, daycare, preschool, etc. Our objectives are to help children reach their highest potential and increase their quality of life. Services are provided under the direction of their attending physician.
Speech-language pathologists are required to hold a master’s degree in speech-language pathology. SLP’s are also required to have state licensure and national certification from the American Speech-Language Hearing Association. SLP’s are trained to evaluate, diagnose, and treat disorders of language (including both the understanding and use of), articulation and phonology (how clearly words are spoken), fluency, pragmatics (understanding and use of social language), oral motor skills, and voice.
Many of our SLPs are also trained to provide assessment, diagnosis and treatment of swallowing and feeding disorders. Some of the most common disorders that require speech-language intervention include:

  • Apraxia of Speech
  • Attention Deficit Disorder
  • Autism Spectrum Disorders
  • Cerebral Palsy
  • Cleft Lip/Palate
  • Developmental Delay
  • Down Syndrome
  • Dysphagia/Oral Feeding Delays
  • Genetic Disorders
  • Hearing Impairment
  • Learning Disabilities
  • Sensory Processing Disorders

Occupational Therapy

Early intervention occupational therapists (OT) provide skilled services for children ages birth to three in their natural environments to reach their full independence and developmental potential. OTs determine a child’s functional status through screening, assessments, observation, and parental interviews before creating a plan of care with individualized goals to address the child’s needs. Children have many important occupations, such as, sleep, play, feeding, bathing, and functional mobility that we address through play and participation. Interventions such as establishing routines, increasing fine motor dexterity, modulating sensory stimuli, and teaching coping mechanisms are all used. We use a family-centered approach to increase involvement and outcomes. OTs are required to hold either a bachelors, masters, or doctorate, depending on the year of training was completed, to practice. OTs must also uphold active state licensure and a national board registration. OTs provide intervention for various disorders, some of which are listed below

  • Down Syndrome
  • Sensory Processing Disorder
  • Autism Spectrum Disorder
  • Developmental Delay
  • Cerebral Palsy
  • Attention Deficit Disorder

About

Our Humble Beginnings

  • 2002-2017

    Our Story Begins

    KM Pediatric Therapy was started by Loraine Allen. Kyle Murphy (KM) is Loraine's nephew. He was born 14 weeks premature in the summer of 1991. Kyle weighed 1.5 pounds. At that time Loraine was at a crossroads in her career. School psychology no longer held her passion. She wanted to change lives! From day 1 Kyle was a fighter! As he grew, various interventions were added to his schedule. One of these wonderful people was a speech language pathologist.
    Loraine soon found herself in graduate school for speech language pathology. She loved it! Towards the end of her graduate program, Kyle was diagnosed with cancer and left us. He was 3 1/2 years old. Loraine credits her career choice and the happiness in it to Kyle. So, when she opened her practice, who better to name it after than the angel who guided her?

  • June 2017

    The Story Continues

    In the spring of 2017, Loraine moved to MA to pursue new opportunities with her family. I have been with KM Pediatric Therapy since 2004 and was truly honored to take over as owner and team leader. Over the course of my career, I have had the absolute privledge of working with countless children and families who all have a story to tell.
    As in-home therapists, we share the ups and downs that our families and clients experience as they navigate their particular diagnoses. Some are mild and others are quite challenging. But at the heart of it all is a child. And just like Kyle, each child deserves the opportunity to be the best they can be. I am proud to lead this team of dedicated therapists.
    To me, maintaining Kyle's story and initials in our company name are important. They are a constant reminder of the positive impact we can have on the people's lives with which we work. As long as my team and I stay true to our guiding principles, we will honor our namesake and KM Pediatric Therapy will thrive!

  • 2020

    The year 2020 has been like no other. Since the arrival of COVID-19 in March, KM Pediatric Therapy, Inc. has outlined several policies and procedures to maintain the safety and health of our clinicians and patients. As essential workers, we are proud to continue serving the needs of our community to ensure that our patients continue to develop and thrive during this difficult time. Our special needs patients continue to face difficult challenges during this pandemic. We strive to exceed the therapeutic needs of our patients, while empowering parents and caregivers to do their best while we are all working to navigate the complexity and uncertainty that encompasses daily life at the moment. We wish you all health, happiness and peace of mind.

  • Our Chapter to Be in 2023

    As the new year of 2023 begins, it is exciting to anticipate all that is to come. It has certainly been an eventful 3 years since our last major posting. We are beyond proud of the KM team for how we handled the immense complexities that defined a new pandemic reality that no one saw coming. Those days are forever a part of our DNA and for some, the impacts of COVID-19 will last for generations. But to this current pediatric population that we are so honored to work with, we want to express our eagerness and commitment to help each child reach their maximum potential. The clinicians on our team continue to learn, develop and hone their professional skills in a variety of ways to provide the best care possible. For example, we have two clinicians who were recently awarded credentials as autism specialists, with two more clinicians anticipated to receive this same credential in 2023. KM's OT department is expanding as we speak, with our OTs learning new skills, such as feeding intervention techniques and constraint therapy approaches, to serve an increasing demand in our community. We have an SLP who is quickly becoming an assistive technology guru; her work with AT devices has given nonverbal children the ability to finally communicate their own thoughts, ideas, needs and wants. To all those who have and continue to work with a KM clinician, we thank you for your commitment to this therapeutic process. To those who are searching for a dynamic SLP or OT, reach out to us! And to all those professional SLPs and OTs out there who are looking to foster real progress and change in the lives of children with dynamic needs, get on board! We are moving forward in all the best ways. Watch us go and grow!!!

Our in-network status does not guarantee that services will be covered by your insurance plan. It is important that you understand your individual benefits as they pertain to speech, feeding and/or occupational therapy services. It is your responsibility as the policyholder to contact your insurance company to find out if speech, feeding and/or occupational therapy is a covered service under your policy and whether you have any exclusions or visit limits. KM Pediatric Therapy, Inc. is not responsible for obtaining or tracking benefit information. It is your responsibility to provide KM Pediatric Therapy, Inc. with a copy of the front and back of your current insurance card so we can determine if prior authorization is needed for your child’s services.


Billing:

KM Pediatric Therapy, Inc. will submit claims to your insurance company. While we will assist in filing claims, payment for all services is ultimately charged to you, not to your insurance company. Parents/guardians are responsible for payment of any portion not covered, or denied, by insurance. Statements for services are mailed around the 1st of each month. Payment is due by the due date listed on your Statement. In the event that payment is not received in full and on time, then a $25 late fee will be added to unpaid accounts every 15 days until payment is made. Also, if payment is late, your child’s services may be placed on hold, or terminated. Please note that if services are placed on hold, we cannot guarantee your time slot will be held. In the event collection efforts are necessary, then any costs incurred, including attorney’s fees and court costs shall also be due and payable as part of any post due amount.


PAYMENT OPTIONS:

  • Credit Cards/HSA or FSA Cards: If paying by credit card, you must complete the Credit Card Recurring Payment Authorization Form. Credit card information will be stored on a secure credit card system. Your credit card will be charged the balance amount listed on your Statement around the 15th of every month.If your credit card denies, you will be notified by KM Pediatric Therapy via email. If within 5 business days we have not received a valid credit card or check payment, your child will be placed on hold until account is paid in full.
  • Checks: Checks must be mailed and received in the office no later than 5 business days from the Statement due date. If not received within this timeframe, your child will be placed on hold until account is paid in full. A $25 fee will be charged for checks with insufficient funds.

CLAIM PROCESSING AND DENIALS:

KM Pediatric Therapy, Inc. is NOT responsible for claim denials. KM Pediatric Therapy, Inc. will not enter into a dispute between you and your insurance provider regarding a claim. Please be advised that insurance companies process claims according to their own timelines, independent of KM Pediatric Therapy, Inc. Some companies will take 30-45 days before providing their initial response. If your insurance company requests medical records, we will fax or mail those to your insurance company but it is up to you to follow-up with the claim. If the claim remains unresolved after 60 days following the initial claim submission date, the parent/guardian will be billed the estimated charge of services provided. If your insurance eventually processes the claim and it results in a change of financial responsibility, KM Pediatric Therapy, Inc. will either bill or refund the parent/guardian the difference.


CHANGES IN YOUR INSURANCE COVERAGE:

It is your responsibility to inform KM Pediatric Therapy, Inc. of any and all changes of insurance coverage during the course of treatment, including changes in your address, phone number, employment and medical benefits. Failure to provide this information will result in the parents/guardians being responsible for payment of all non-covered and/or unauthorized services that may result.


COMMON INSURANCE TERMS:

  • EOB—Explanation of Benefits: Your insurance company will provide you this documentation that explains your financial responsibility per claim.
  • Deductible: The amount you must pay for health care before your insurance benefits take effect.
  • Coinsurance: The percentage of health care costs you must pay once your insurer covers its share. Coinsurance typically goes into effect once the deductible has been reached.
  • Copay: The set amount you must pay for a health care service.

APPEALS PROCESS:

The appeals process is between you and your insurance provider, and not KM Pediatric Therapy, Inc. However, we can assist in providing you with clinical documentation. You will be responsible for submitting the documentation to your insurance provider and any follow up communication required. During the appeals process, KM Pediatric Therapy, Inc. is not receiving payment from your insurance provider. This in turn will result in you paying in full for the treatment sessions your child receives. If you cannot pay in full for the treatment sessions, therapy will be placed on hold until the appeals process is complete.


MISSED APPOINTMENTS:

All client cancellations require at least a 48 hour notice. Cancellations without a 48 hour notice will incur a $25 missed appointment fee which is not covered by insurance. Special consideration may be given to emergency situations and/or illness. Children who receive services through Early Intervention (CDSA) or who have Medicaid cannot be charged this fee but we still ask for advanced notice for any missed appointments. If you repeatedly miss your scheduled appointments, the therapist has the right to discontinue services. Please refer to the KM Pediatric Therapy Cancellation Policy for specific details.


CANCELLATION POLICY:

The following cancellation policy has been adopted by KM Pediatric Therapy, Inc. to be applied to all scheduled evaluation and therapy appointments. This policy is enforced in order to be respectful of your work schedule, personal schedule and that of our therapists. It is also important that service delivery is consistent in order to elicit the progress that is important for your child and required, per insurance regulations, for ongoing therapy to remain justifiable. By maintaining the prescribed and agreed upon frequency of treatment, your child will optimize their benefit from the provided skilled intervention and the duration of therapy can occur at its most efficient length.


  • Planned Cancellations: (e.g., doctor’s appointment, vacation) It is the parent/caregiver’s responsibility to keep the therapist informed of any changes needed to the therapy schedule. A 48-hour notice is required for any cancellations so that adjustments can be made to the evaluation/therapy schedule and make up sessions can be accommodated, if possible.
  • Cancellations due to Illness: It is vital that parents and therapists work together to keep each other healthy and safe. Our therapists travel from patient to patient and some of our patients, or their close family members, are vulnerable to medical complications should they be exposed to contagious diseases. Please cancel your scheduled appointment should your child experience diarrhea, vomiting, contagious disease, or a fever of over 100 degrees. Your child should be symptom free for at least 24 hours before therapy can resume. Our therapists will also notify you if they experience illness and are unable to provide services.
  • No Shows or Tardiness: In the event of a “no show” (i.e., not being home or at daycare/preschool at the scheduled time or not logging into a virtual session at the scheduled time) or tardiness (later than 15 minutes past your scheduled appointment time), you will be given written notice. A second no show or tardy within a 3-month period will result in your child being discharged from our practice. Parents must keep 75% of scheduled therapy visits per month. Clients who drop below this amount for 2 consecutive months will be given written notice of discharge from our practice. Our therapists will make every effort to accommodate a reschedule should a cancellation be required.
  • Copay: The set amount you must pay for a health care service.
