HOLLYWOOD, Fla., May 06, 2025 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- Great Speech, a national leader in virtual speech therapy, is proud to announce a new agreement with Claritev, formerly known as MultiPlan (NYSE:CTEV), a technology and data insights company focused on making healthcare more affordable, transparent and fair for all. This network participation agreement marks a major step forward in expanding access to high-quality, convenient, and personalized speech therapy services for individuals and families nationwide.

Great Speech's innovative teletherapy services will now be available to health plan members accessing Claritev's MultiPlan and PHCS Networks. The initiative aims to eliminate traditional barriers to care—such as geography, mobility, and provider shortages—by connecting patients with certified speech-language pathologists from the comfort of their homes.

"We are thrilled to join Claritev's PPO networks as a participating provider," said Avivit Ben-Aharon, M.S. Ed., CCC-SLP, Founder and Clinical Director of Great Speech. "Our shared commitment to improving patient outcomes and broadening access to care will allow us to bring transformative speech therapy to even more individuals who need it."

Great Speech's evidence-based virtual therapy model has supported patients with a wide range of communication challenges—from articulation and fluency to cognitive and social communication disorders. The platform's HIPAA-compliant interface, flexible scheduling, and individualized programs make it an ideal solution for patients of all ages.

Great Speech's participation in Claritev's expansive provider networks will help reduce out-of-pocket costs for patients and promote long-term engagement in therapy.
