About Dylan Thorp

The $20B teletherapy (PT/OT/Speech) industry is operating on a fundamental flaw: billing for time instead of measurable therapeutic quality. In these fields,\"engagement\" does in fact directly predict outcomes. Questionable therapeutic quality delivered over teleplatforms is eroding payor trust, causing reimbursement cuts, and, worst of all, failing kids by stretching treatment cycles from months to years.As a Speech-Language Pathologist and innovator, my mission is to introduce the first truly transparent, clinically intense standard for virtual care. The methodology is based on Hebbian learning, ensuring each session drives meaningful, measurable transparency of progress for every stakeholder involved:🧑‍ For clinicians: A system that guarantees high engagement, maximizes clinical effectiveness, and validates your expertise with objective data. For payors: The first transparent view into therapeutic quality, replacing black-box billing with measurable outcomes and verifiable value. 🧩 For kids & parents: A model that shortens treatment time frames and guarantees progress through optimized learning engagement.I am actively partnering with forward-thinking clinics, practitioners, and payors to implement the new standard. Let’s talk.
