Protecting the clinical autonomy of audiologists.

Summary

SB 6226 adds language to Washington law that the licensing board may not adopt rules that stop clinicians from deciding whether a patient should be treated via telehealth or face‑to‑face. It applies to audiologists, speech‑language pathologists and hearing‑aid specialists, ensuring the same standards of care apply regardless of delivery mode.
