Presenter(s): Paula Leslie, PhD, MA Bioethics, FRCSLT, CCC-SLP
Credit(s): PDHs: 2.0, ASHA CEUs*: 0.2
Summary: Eating, drinking, and swallowing are individual actions that are central to identity and cultural participation. For many individuals, spirituality or religious preferences are important aspects of what gives their life meaning. This on demand webinar steps back from swallowing physiology to explore the interplay of eating, drinking, swallowing, and religious beliefs and practices.
Presenter(s): Marianne E Gellert-Jones, MA, CCC-SLP
Credit(s): PDHs: 2.0, ASHA CEUs*: 0.2
Summary: This on demand webinar is designed for school-based SLPs who support children with complex oral feeding and swallowing needs. The speaker discusses the components of a robust feeding and dysphagia assessment, and how that assessment informs treatment decisions surrounding a student's feeding needs. The course examines effective and realistic goal development to address feeding needs within the IEP.
Presenter(s): Neela Swanson, BA
Credit(s): PDHs: 0.5, ASHA CEUs*: 0.05
Summary: This course provides practical coding and payment information for clinicians considering telehealth as a new service delivery model. The course discusses coding, billing, and compliance considerations and provides resources to help clinicians navigate state, federal, and payer laws and regulations. The speaker reviews common questions and case scenarios.
Presenter(s): Emily M Homer, MA, CCC-SLP
Credit(s): PDHs: 1.5, ASHA CEUs*: 0.15
Summary: SLPs are increasingly responsible for identifying and treating students with swallowing and feeding concerns, leading to questions like: What are the tasks that must be addressed? What service delivery model should be used? Given challenges like the COVID-19 pandemic, is telepractice an option? How can it fit into my workload schedule? This session from ASHA's 2021 Schools Connect online conference reviews the essential steps for addressing swallowing and feeding, the barriers and solutions to obstacles, and the role of telepractice in achieving the goal of safe and efficient mealtimes for students.
Presenter(s): Duane V Trahan, MS, CCC-SLP; Wendy LeBorgne, PhD, CCC-SLP
Credit(s): PDHs: 2.0, ASHA CEUs*: 0.2
Summary: This on demand webinar discusses key 2024 coding and health care payment updates for SLPs. Topics include new CPT codes for caregiver training, updates to ICD-10 diagnosis codes, the 2024 Medicare Physician Fee Schedule, and common coding and billing challenges and solutions. The speakers present scenarios across a variety of settings and patient populations.
Presenter(s): Joan C Arvedson, PhD, CCC-SLP, BCS-S
Credit(s): PDHs: 1.0, ASHA CEUs*: 0.1
Summary: This session discusses challenges for the future as a combination of art and science as well as highlights areas of consensus and controversy in the many facets of practice that encompass pediatric feeding and swallowing.
Presenter(s): Meghan Ryan, MSL, Health Policy and Law; Caroline Bergner, Esq.
Credit(s): PDHs: 1.0, ASHA CEUs*: 0.1
Summary: Audiologists and SLPs who work in schools and supervise graduate students, clinical fellows (CFs), and assistants need to comply with payer requirements to avoid denials or unfavorable audits that could lead to recoupment and civil or criminal penalties. This on demand webinar will outline the state and federal legal supervision requirements as well as payment considerations when supervising students and support personnel.
Presenter(s): Raquel J Garcia, SLPD, CCC-SLP, CNT, BCS-S
Credit(s): PDHs: 1.0, ASHA CEUs*: 0.1
Summary: Infants and young children with craniofacial differences are inherently at increased risk for feeding and swallowing challenges due to their anatomical variances, medical co-morbidities, and experiences with medical touch. This session explores functional interventions to maximize developmental feeding skills and swallowing safety in children from birth to 3 years old with a history of cleft lip, cleft palate, and/or craniofacial differences. The speaker discusses case studies from infancy and early intervention that utilize the pediatric feeding disorder criteria to guide differential diagnosis and develop an evidence-based functional intervention plan.
Presenter(s): Pamela M Dodrill, PhD, CCC-SLP, BCS-S, CNT
Credit(s): PDHs: 1.0, ASHA CEUs*: 0.1
Summary: The session explores clinical feeding assessment tools that are appropriate for use in various clinical settings with children from birth to 3 years of age with varying etiologies. The speaker discusses pros and cons of various assessment tools as well as the importance of incorporating functional measures into your assessment battery to help guide meaningful management goals.
Presenter(s): Memorie M Gosa, PhD, CCC-SLP, BCS-S
Credit(s): PDHs: 1.0, ASHA CEUs*: 0.1
Summary: Diet texture modification-specifically, thickening of liquid consistencies-is often recommended to compensate for dysphagia in pediatric populations due to their physical and cognitive immaturity. This session discusses the evidence in support of this popular management recommendation and explores the many variables that can impact its effectiveness. The speaker presents strategies that SLPs can implement in their clinical practice to mitigate undesirable consequences of texture modification in the pediatric population.
