Abstract

Abstract The American Speech-Language-Hearing Association (ASHA) supports the use of telespeech (also called telepractice) to expand access to speech-language pathology and audiology services; however, widespread acceptance has been influenced by the reluctance of payers to reimburse this method of service delivery. At the present time, schools are leading the way in implementing telespeech, while adoption in health-care settings lags behind. This article provides a brief background about ASHA's activities with regard to telepractice and discusses the status of reimbursement for telespeech in various settings, including schools, private insurance, Medicare, and Medicaid.
