Abstract Administrators and supervisors face daily challenges over issues such as program funding, service fees, correct coding procedures, and the ever-changing healthcare regulations. Receiving equitable reimbursement for speech-language pathology and audiology services necessitates an understanding of federal coding and reimbursement systems. This tutorial provides information pertaining to two major healthcare coding systems and explains the relationship of these systems to clinical documentation, the Medicare Physician Fee Schedule and equitable reimbursement. An explanation of coding edits and coding modifiers is provided for use in those occasional atypical situations when the standard use of procedural coding may not be appropriate. Also included in this tutorial is a brief discussion of the impact that the Medicare Improvements for Patients and Providers Act of 2008 (HR 6331 Medicare Improvements for Patients and Providers Act [MIPPA], 2008) has had on the valuation of speech-language pathology procedure codes.

The Relationship

The field of Cognitive Hearing Science examines the relationship between cognitive, linguistic, and hearing functions. Although these areas are of particular importance to speech-language pathology, few studies have investigated applications of cognitive hearing science to clinical practice. The purpose of this review article is to (1) explore and present a summary of cognitive hearing science techniques for dual-task and hearing-in-noise procedures and implications to speech-language pathology, and (2) provide a clinical guide for speech-language pathology in adult multitasking intervention with noise. It is well understood that areas of cognitive skill and hearing function decline with age; therefore, additional understanding of the relationship of these functions is of particular importance to speech-language pathologists working with older individuals. This article meets the American Speech-Language-Hearing Association's (ASHA's) Special Interest Group (SIG) 15's mission of “research-to-practice” professional development by “promoting understanding of the effects of normal and pathological aging on cognition, language […] and hearing” (ASHA, 2017), and is intended to be of interest to the SIG 15 readership.

Female Graduate Student

The relationship between judged clinical effectiveness and personality variables as determined by the Minnesota Multiphasic Personality Inventory (MMPI) was studied in a population of 130 female graduate students in speech-language pathology from nine universities in six different states. An MMPI profile analysis for the total group indicated that the group was similar to other female graduate student populations and that the typical student, while being manifestly normal, might be described as being rather passive, compliant, stereotypically feminine, sensitive, anxious, highly imaginative, creative, and energetic. Although no single MMPI scale was found to differentiate between subject clinical effectiveness groups, the subjects' MMPI profiles were found to predict accurately the clinical effectiveness group to which the subjects were assigned.

The Relationship

Abstract Considerable literature on the relationship between supervisor and supervisee has emerged in the last decade. Much of this literature, however, has examined the relationship that occurs between psychologist and psychology supervisee. In the domain of speech-language pathology and audiology, there is a paucity of information and data. Thus, in response to the limited body of work in the field, the authors hope to first spark discussion around the topic of boundaries within the relationship between clinical supervisors and supervisees. One theoretical model, the “slippery slope,” is presented as a means to understand boundary crossing behavior in the clinical supervision context. The second objective of this article is to explore the working alliance or the working relationship that occurs between a supervisee and a supervisor. Given the multiple roles that a supervisor plays in the life of the supervisee, mentee, and finally colleague, it is likely that at some point, in one of these roles, that the supervisor and/or the supervisee will be faced with a difficult boundary situation. This article is proposed in response to the call from researchers and practitioners who have suggested that one response to addressing boundary violations and boundary crossings is a frank and open discussion.

Abstract Making the move to private practice can be an exciting and challenging proposition. There are many practical, professional, and personnel issues to consider. This tutorial provides practical suggestions for transitioning into a private practice including considerations for referral base, office space, personnel, and practice management. In addition, two major health-care coding systems are described, and the relationship of these systems to clinical documentation (Medicare Physician Fee Schedule and equitable reimbursement) is explained. Information about the use of coding edits and coding modifiers is provided. Also included in this tutorial is a brief discussion of the impact that Public Law 110-275: Medicare Improvements for Patients and Providers Act of 2008 has had on the valuation of speech-language pathology procedure codes, particularly for assessment and treatment of individuals with voice disorders.

Best Fit

There are many pathways to the doctoral degree. In this article, I will address one perspective from my own experience seeking a PhD as a speech-language pathologist in the field of special education. My own rationale for seeking this route to the PhD centered around finding a “best fit” for my research and career interests, nearly 30 years ago. Through the filter of history and changes in the field of speech-language pathology, I will examine contributions to the programs that I have served in. The added benefits from the field of special education include a broader view of services to people with disabilities that enabled much collaboration to develop throughout my own career. Although the personal experience I have had may not fully reflect the relationship of special education to speech-language pathology, the interdisciplinary context in current policy and research initiatives mirrors many of my own experiences.

This study examined aspects of interpersonal communication in supervisory conferences in a university-based speech-language pathology practicum, through the use of qualitative methods. This article describes the methodology and presents findings particular to students, particular to supervisors, and relevant to the conference as a whole. The findings indicate that discussions about clients included a focus on the interpersonal relationship between students and clients, but that issues involving the feelings associated with the relationship were not a major focus of the conferences studied.

Purpose: To examine Anderson’s Continuum Model of Supervision with respect to the field of speech-language pathology, clinical supervision, and the inter-relationships between the Model and perceived supervisory roles, working alliances, and change in students’ self-efficacy (SE). Methods: Graduate students enrolled in initial practicum (N = 117) completed pre-post semester sets of the Generalized Self-Efficacy Scale, Student Profile, Supervisor Rating Form, and Supervisor Working Alliance Inventory. Descriptive demographic information was derived from the Student Profile. Data were analyzed by utilizing a series of parametric statistics for assessing the relationships between variables. Results: Significant positive change in student reports of SE occurred between the beginning and end of the semester (effect size d = 1.547). Relationships were established between change in student SE and supervisor roles (F[5,11]= 8.13, p < 01) and between working alliances and supervisor roles (F[10,220]= 2.56, p <.01). A structural equation model revealed that student demographics had an effect (18.8%) on the relationship between change in students’ SE and independent study constructs. Conclusion: 48% of students perceived supervisors to emphasize the Consultant role of clinical supervision; these students also demonstrated greatest perceived change in SE. Although supervision roles within Anderson’s Model relate to effective training of speech-language pathology students, the order in which these roles are presented should not be assumed based on practicum level, but should instead match each student’s individual needs.
