For Clinics

USING THE CPT III CODE 0770T

If your clinic is not already using the Floreo-sponsored CPT III code for virtual reality-assisted therapy (code 0770T), you should be! Not only can you be reimbursed for sessions in which you use Floreo, but you are also helping us pave the way to a CPT I code. If you have questions about using the code, please reach out and we will help to support your submissions using it!

Listen to Floreo's Founder/CEO, Vijay Ravindran, discuss why it is so important to start adding 0770T to your billing process!

Using Floreo in your clinic, school, or home

INFO FROM OUR DIRECTOR OF APPLIED DIGITAL THERAPY

Floreo's Director of Applied Digital Therapy, Rita Solórzano MA, CCC-SLP, is a Speech Language Pathologist with over 30 years of experience.

Many schools, therapy clinics, and even family homes have been adapted with sensory rooms or sensory spaces where neurodiverse individuals can go to regulate their systems. Providing individuals with an immersive space where they can regulate is a fairly common strategy, and these sensory rooms are sought-after spaces. Moreover, every one that I’ve seen has been beautifully designed. That said, in some instances, using virtual reality as a mobile sensory space has advantages over a dedicated sensory room in a building.

FLOREO SUBSCRIPTIONS MAY BE COVERED

Did you know that Floreo has programs in place with several state waivers? These programs, like the Children's Long Term Support waiver in Wisconsin, or the MAPS program in Tennesee will pay for a Floreo subscription and equipment rental for participating families. We have also had success with families in other states using self-directed funds or funds for assistive technology to purchase a Floreo subscription.

The best place to start is with your family's service coordinator. Chat with them to see if they can help get a Floreo subscription in place. And if they have any questions, we're always happy to help!

Funding ideas

HOW CAN WE HELP YOU GAIN FUNDING FOR FLOREO?

We know that budgets can be tight, and we want to help get Floreo into the hands of anyone who needs it! Please let us know if you need help writing up your DonorsChoose application or with information for a grant you have identified. This is a great resource to find available grants.

IDEA and Title I funds are also great sources to help you access a Floreo subscription.
