Rapid Conversion from Clinic to Telehealth Behavioral Services During the COVID-19 Pandemic	2020-10-15		.txt	text/plain	5879	293	45	We describe here the impact, changes, and outcomes achieved by a large, multifaceted ABA clinical program that has (a) ongoing data that forecasted and tracked changes, (b) staff well practiced with data-based shifts in operations (behavior), and (c) up-to-date information (data) on policy and regulations. In this article, we (a) describe the various legal, ethical, and logistical considerations for designing a telehealth service delivery model; (b) describe the steps needed to scale up the model across an organization; and (c) provide data demonstrating our transition from primarily in-person to primarily telehealth appointments over a 2-week period. Specifically, the rules and regulations for transitioning behavioral services to telehealth largely come from four main sources: professional ethics codes (e.g., APA, 2017; Behavior Analyst Certification Board [BACB] , 2019), the Health Insurance Portability and Accountability Act (HIPAA), 1 insurance regulations, and state licensure laws. In addition to documenting changes in child behavior and collateral effects (e.g., parent functioning), it is also important to evaluate client and provider satisfaction with a telehealth service delivery model.	./cache/cord-258577-uo55dj39.txt	./txt/cord-258577-uo55dj39.txt
