The Long E Epiphany
🟣 TAG Telecare Model
Delivering Movement-Based Literacy Therapy Across Screens—and State Lines
TAG Telecare enables certified providers to deliver TAG VITAAL-K™ Therapy remotely, using rhythmic, multisensory routines adapted for virtual environments. This model expands access to neurodiverse learners while preserving the fidelity, engagement, and therapeutic impact of in-person care.
🔶 Core Features of TAG Telecare
🧠 Strand Fidelity Online
Visual, auditory, and kinesthetic strands are adapted for screen-based delivery using interactive slides, movement prompts, and tactile proxies
🧍 Whole-Body Engagement
Providers guide learners through rhythmic routines using verbal cues, mirror modeling, and parent-assisted movement
📄 Session Documentation
Intake, progress notes, and fidelity checklists are completed via TAG’s secure portal
🔒 Privacy & Compliance
All sessions adhere to FERPA, COPPA, and HIPAA standards, with encrypted platforms and consent protocols
🧑🤝🧑 Parent Partnership
Parents are coached to assist with tactile and kinesthetic routines, ensuring carryover and engagement
🟠 Multi-State Service Delivery: What Clinicians Need to Know
To deliver TAG Telecare across state lines, clinicians must comply with state-specific licensure laws. Here's how:
✅ 1. Licensure in Client’s State
Most states require that providers be licensed in the state where the client is physically located during the session. This means:
-
You must hold a valid license in each state you wish to serve
-
You must verify client location before each session
-
You must document consent and licensure compliance
✅ 2. Join Interstate Compacts (If Eligible)
TAG encourages clinicians to join relevant licensure compacts to streamline multi-state practice:
Interstate Compacts
🧠 PSYPACT
Psychologists
40+ states
🗣️ Counseling Compact
Licensed Counselors
33 states
🧑⚕️ Social Work Licensure Compact
Social Workers
7+ states (growing)
🩺 Nursing Licensure Compact
Nurses & APRNs
30+ states
These compacts allow clinicians to practice across member states without obtaining separate licenses—dramatically expanding reach and reducing administrative burden.
✅ 3. Telehealth Registration (Optional in Some States)
Some states offer a telehealth registration pathway for out-of-state providers. Requirements typically include:
-
Valid license in home state
-
No disciplinary history
-
Proof of liability insurance
-
Annual registration and fee
-
No in-person services in that state 2
