Description

Michigan SLPs just scored a unanimous 15–0 win in the Michigan House Health Policy Committee. House Bill 4484 is officially moving forward, clarifying that the state license, not a private certificate, is the credential for reimbursement. In this bonus episode, we detail what’s next in the Michigan legislative process, why this matters for Medicaid states, and how SLPs can replicate the win across the country. Plus: the SLP Compact update and celebrating two years of Fix SLP!
