Working with Insurance

Lake Tahoe Preparatory School recognizes the financial commitment of our tuition and therefore would like to help families seek relief whether through insurance reimbursement or through home school districts.

Although LTP does not accept insurance, pre-authorize treatment, or directly assist with insurance reimbursement efforts, some treatment expenses may be recovered. Families will be provided with a monthly superbill to submit to insurance for reimbursement of therapeutic costs. 

Additionally,  LTP will work with families and their local school districts to obtain funding for schooling and therapeutic services.
