Proposed Rule on Telepractice for Speech and Language Pathology and Audiology Services
A proposed rule regarding "telepractice" for Speech and Language Pathology and Audiology Services was published in the March 1, 2010 North Carolina Register. The new rule defines telepractice as "the use of telecommunications and information technologies for the exchange of encrypted patient data, obtained through real-time interaction, from one site to another for the provision of speech and language pathology and audiology services to patients through hardwire or internet connection." Written comments or objections must be submitted by April 30, 2010, and a public hearing will be held April 23, 2010 at 1:30 pm at the Sheraton Imperial Hotel in Durham.
