Hi Christine, Thank you for your article. I am a little familiar with the Lidcombe treatment and I find the program very interesting. It is truly amazing that delivery methods can be adjusted to reach individuals that were denied prior treatment. I had a few questions regarding telehealth delivery. Typically in the Lidcombe program the parent and speech pathologist compare SR scores to make sure that there is some continuity between judgements. How is this accomplised with the telehealth delivery model? What difficulties with telehealth experience have been reported by the speech pathologist in this delivery method? How do the treatment success rates for telehealth delivery differ from clinic delivery? You mentioned that the rate of therapy was extended, how much longer on average did the telehealth delivery take? Thank you Lisa
