Telepractice

Telepractice is the application of telecommunications technology for delivery of professional services at a distance. It links therapist to client, or therapist-to-therapist, for assessment, intervention, and/or consultation. Telepractice offers "the potential to extend clinical services to remote, rural, and underserved populations, and to culturally and linguistically diverse populations."

The American Speech-Language Hearing Association's (ASHA) position is that "telepractice is an appropriate model of service delivery for the professions of speech-language pathology [and audiology]. Telepractice may be used to overcome barriers of access to services caused by distance, unavailability of specialists and/or subspecialists, and impaired mobility."
