FAQs

Why do I need a device trial?

A short trial lets you explore how AAC supports daily communication and therapy goals in real‑world settings, with expert guidance along the way.

How long is a trial?

Most trials last about three weeks, with regular check‑ins from our team to support training, customization, and carryover.

What does a device cost?

Before the trial starts, our funding team reviews your insurance and lets you know about any potential out‑of‑pocket costs. Many users have little to no cost for the device. Device trials are free and have no obligation for purchase.

What do I need to begin?

Basic contact info, diagnosis, and insurance details are enough to start.

Do I need an SLP to get started?

No. If you or a loved one wishes to try a Lingraphica device, our team will teach you the ins and outs of the device. Once you are comfortable, we will find an SLP to meet with you to conduct a final evaluation and provide the official device recommendation required by insurance. If you already see an SLP, we will reach out to them for the evaluation and recommendation.

If I’m an SLP, can Lingraphica help my client try a device?

Absolutely. If you would rather have the Lingraphica team facilitate training sessions with the device and only provide the evaluation and recommendation near the end of training, let our team know.

What kind of support will I receive?

You’ll have access to clinical and technical specialists for setup, customization, training tips, and therapy ideas. We also provide ongoing technical support.

What happens after the trial?

If the device is helpful, we’ll handle the next steps—physician documentation, insurance coordination, and shipping of a permanent device. If it isn’t the right fit, we’ll discuss alternatives.

Do I have to be “tech‑savvy”?

No. Lingraphica devices are simple to use and can be tailored to each person. Many users start with a few meaningful words or phrases, then build from there.

Can care partners be involved?

Absolutely. Success grows when partners learn simple strategies. We’ll coach everyone involved so communication feels easier and more natural.
