Hi,
We are all struggling to find ways to provide services to our very vulnerable population right now.  Here is an update from ASHA that I wanted to bring to the attention of people on this list.  While it is not an expansion of telepractice to finally include allied health professionals as telepractice providers, which is what we ultimately need and must keep working on, it is a modest opening to get some sustainable/billable non-face to face care to our patients.
