Common Questions

FAQ

Yes. Every interpreter completes our ABA Interpreter Training Program before their first session — covering ABA fundamentals, bilingual terminology (50+ terms), session neutrality protocol, and HIPAA compliance. They must pass a competency assessment at 85% or higher to be cleared to work.
Full sessions are billed in 1-hour increments — RBT sessions carry a 2-hour minimum per booking, BCBA supervision and parent meetings are flat-rate for the first hour and per hour after, and assessments are a flat fee with no overage. The Live Interpretation Line (retainer clients only) covers calls up to 30 minutes and draws from monthly hours — 15-minute blocks when scheduled ahead, 30-minute minimum for short-notice and same-day calls. Longer engagements are booked as full sessions. Once included hours are used, additional time bills at the $95/hr overage rate.
We work on your existing HIPAA-compliant telehealth platform — you don't need to install or change anything. We join as a third party via your session link. A HIPAA BAA is available on request.
We do not bill insurance. All services are invoiced directly to your organization. No prior authorizations, no credentialing wait, no claim denials. Invoices are due within 7 days of receipt. Retainer clients receive a single monthly invoice on the 1st.
Retainer hours are use-it-or-lose-it. Hours are allocated on the 1st of each month and must be used within that billing cycle. Unused hours do not roll over and no credits are issued for unused time. This policy funds dedicated interpreter availability for your organization each month. If you consistently hit your ceiling, we recommend upgrading tiers.
We require 24 hours advance notice to cancel or reschedule. Cancellations within 24 hours are billed at 50% of the session rate. Same-day cancellations and no-shows are billed at the full session rate. For retainer clients, cancelled sessions within 24 hours still draw from included hours.
Yes. A HIPAA Business Associate Agreement is available on request and is required before any session involving Protected Health Information (PHI). All interpreters sign a BAA as part of their onboarding. Certificates available to client organizations on request.
Retainer clients call or text the Live Interpretation Line and receive a live callback within 15 minutes (7am–7pm CT) — urgent calls simply draw from included hours. The Live Line is exclusive to retainer clients; Tier 1 starts at $500/month, month-to-month, with full access from day one. Non-retainer organizations can book full same-day therapy sessions at the session rate + 50%, subject to interpreter availability.
We are based in Tennessee and we go where the need is — from the clinic down the street to providers across the region. All services are delivered via telehealth, so we can reach any community, in any zip code, that has families waiting.
In most cases, your first session can be scheduled within 3–5 business days of your initial inquiry. Retainer clients receive priority scheduling from day one.
Payment is due within 7 days of invoice. Retainer clients are invoiced on the 1st of each month. Per-session clients are invoiced weekly.

Why It Matters

Why ABA-Trained Interpreters

Minimizing barriers through culturally and clinically competent language translation.

They Know ABA

Our interpreters are trained in ABA — so they understand the terminology, the structure of sessions, and where the conversation is headed. That means less delay, smoother sessions, and better support for your clinical team.

Culturally Competent

Our interpreters bring genuine cultural competence with Spanish-speaking families. That familiarity builds trust quickly — and when families feel comfortable, they share more. That openness leads to richer, more complete information about what's really affecting that individual and their family.
