92507 Prep Freebies: How SLP Practices Can Prepare Now
The 92507 reimbursement changes are coming—and waiting for all the answers isn’t a strategy.
In this episode, Hylan and Nikki break down how practices can prepare now without panicking. Using their free reimbursement assessment tool, they walk through how to model potential financial impact, pressure-test scheduling models, and identify where your clinic may need to adapt.
You’ll hear about:
Modeling potential reimbursement changes for 2026–2027
Rethinking 30-, 45-, and 60-minute scheduling models
Protecting productivity without burning out clinicians
Preparing leaders and admin teams for transparent conversations with staff and families
Strengthening documentation, payer relationships, and communication
Exploring revenue opportunities beyond traditional therapy sessions
Most importantly, they dig into the leadership side of uncertainty—because strong mentorship, transparency, and communication may be just as important as the numbers.
The goal isn’t panic. It’s strategy, transparency, and preparing your people now.

92507 Changes: Don't Panic. Prepare.
The conversation around the proposed 92507 reimbursement changes has created a lot of uncertainty for speech-language pathologists—but panic isn't a strategy.
In this episode, Hylan and Nikki discuss what these changes could mean for SLP practices, the ripple effects they may have on operations, leadership, staffing, and patient access, and the conversations practice owners and leaders should be having now to prepare.
Whether you're a solo practitioner, practice owner, clinical leader, or clinician invested in the future of our profession, this episode focuses on what you can control and how to think strategically through uncertainty.
In this episode, we discuss:
The potential impact of the proposed 92507 reimbursement changes on SLP practices
Why understanding your margins and operational data matters now more than ever
Practical ways to strengthen scheduling, attendance policies, and practice operations
How leadership, communication, and mentorship become even more important during times of change
Why advocating for our profession and preparing our practices should happen at the same time
This episode isn't about fear—it's about preparation. Our goal is to help practices ask better questions, make thoughtful decisions, and build stronger, more resilient organizations regardless of what comes next.

The CF Experience: Expectations & Tools for Success
Most new speech-language pathologists enter their Clinical Fellowship feeling overwhelmed, underprepared, and unsure how to truly grow—despite doing everything “right.” But what if your CF year was never meant to feel this way?
In this episode, Hylan and Nikki break down the real purpose behind the Clinical Fellowship and why so many SLPs—and employers—misunderstand it. They share how the CF was designed to bridge the gap between grad school and real-world practice by building independent clinical thinking, not just completing hours.
You’ll walk away with a clearer understanding of the difference between supervision and mentorship, how to advocate for the support you actually need, and what to look for in a job to set yourself up for success. They also unpack common misconceptions about the CCC and licensure, and introduce practical tools to help you move from uncertainty to confident clinical decision-making.
Whether you’re a CF, a soon-to-be grad, or a mentor supporting new clinicians, this episode will shift how you approach the CF year—and help you make it count.

The Fight for 92507— What’s at Stake for SLPs, CFs & Patient Care
In our Season 2 premiere, we’re tackling a critical issue that could significantly impact the future of speech-language pathology: the potential removal and restructuring of CPT code 92507.
This isn’t just a billing change—it’s a shift that could affect how we deliver care, how we’re reimbursed, and how Clinical Fellows are trained and supported. We break down what 92507 actually represents, why it matters, and what could happen if communication treatment is divided into narrower, more restrictive codes.
We also walk you through the bigger picture—how insurance and reimbursement systems work, why CMS decisions matter, and how these changes could ripple into private practice sustainability, job opportunities, supervision models, and access to care for our clients.
Most importantly, we talk about what YOU can do. As SLPs, our voices matter—and this is a moment to use them.
