Does Wyoming require the CCC?

Wyoming Medicaid rule 048-37-26, section 26-25 (Speech Therapy Services), covers independent licensed speech therapists and does not mention the CCC or ASHA. The text on the linked site is current through September 2024. Licensure: Board rule ch. 2, sec. 5 accepts current ASHA certification or, alternatively, a clinical fellowship, transcripts and the Praxis, so the CCC is not required.

If your employer says you need the CCC

Many job posts and policies still list the CCC out of habit. Our employer education page has language you can share, and the Wyoming one-sheet puts the license and the CCC side by side on two printable pages.

Checked against state sources through October 31, 2026. This page summarizes public rules for general information and is not legal advice. Rules change, and employers and payers can set their own requirements, so confirm with the board before you rely on it.
