Insurance Reimbursement Guide

How to Request Reimbursement from Your Insurance Provider

A Guide from Upwell Therapy

All services are private pay at Upwell Therapy. You may be eligible to get reimbursed through your insurance plan’s out-of-network benefits. While we don’t bill insurance directly, we’re happy to provide you with a superbill—a special receipt with all the information your insurance company needs.

What Is a Superbill?

A superbill is a detailed invoice that shows:

  • The type of therapy your child received

  • Diagnosis and procedure codes

  • How much you paid

  • Our provider and business details

You can submit this document to your insurance company to request reimbursement.

Steps to Submit Your Superbill

  1. Contact your insurance company

    • Ask:

      “Do I have out-of-network benefits for speech or feeding therapy?”
      “What percentage is reimbursed?”
      “What’s the process for submitting a superbill?”

    • Make note of your deductible, coverage percentage, and submission method.

  2. Collect your documents

    • The superbill (we’ll give this to you after each session or monthly)

    • A copy of your payment receipt (if required)

  3. Submit to your insurance

    • Most plans allow you to upload through their online portal or mail a form with the superbill.

    • Use the method your plan prefers (ask them if unsure).

  4. Track your claim

    • Keep a copy of what you submitted.

    • Follow up with your insurance if you don’t receive a response within 2–4 weeks.

    Tips

    Reimbursement is not guaranteed, but many families successfully receive partial or full reimbursement.

    Be sure to submit within your insurance plan’s timeline (often 90–180 days).
