[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]OP here again. Thank you for the responses. I finally got in touch w/ an OT provider billing office willing to walk me through their billing codes and costs,and circled back w/ my insurance company to get their reimbursement rates. After speaking to a second person at BCBS she said they could reimburse the provider directly which would be nice.

My last and final question: how often (weekly, monthly) does you take your kids to regular OT therapy sessions? Again, I realize this likely varies on the child and their needs. However, I'm trying to get a sense of what is "standard" for both costs and time commitment, as the office we found is only open M-F/9-6pm. So trying to get a sense of how often our kid would have to miss preschool and we'd be taking off of work on a monthly basis for appointments (since DH and I work downtown and don't have a nanny or caregiver).

Thanks again for all of your help as I try to figure out the lay of the land. This is all very new to our family![/quote]

Typical frequency is once per week. That's how the providers' schedule and you really need this level of therapy to see benefits. In addition, the therapist should give you 'homework' to do with your child daily.[/quote]
