As telehealth direct therapy sessions are being increasingly provided for safety reasons during the COVID-19 pandemic, it is critical to ensure that sessions are implemented with integrity by direct service providers. Although existing research addresses the efficacy of the telehealth model, there is no literature on integrity measures tied to this service model. Without a framework or point of reference, clinicians new to the field of telehealth direct therapy may not be able or willing to attempt to implement it. The Telehealth Therapy Treatment Integrity Measure is designed to delineate components of effective telehealth direct therapy, including aspects of both instruction that should be generalized from in-person sessions to telehealth direct therapy sessions and new elements that are unique to telehealth direct therapy. A description of how the measure can be used to support the training, both initial and ongoing, of direct service providers is included. This measure can support clinicians in ensuring that direct service providers are working within their scope of competence when providing telehealth direct therapy.

由于在 COVID-19 大流行期间出于安全原因越来越多地提供远程医疗直接治疗会议，因此确保直接服务提供商以诚信方式实施会议至关重要。尽管现有研究解决了远程医疗模式的功效，但没有关于与该服务模式相关的完整性措施的文献。如果没有框架或参考点，远程医疗直接治疗领域的新临床医生可能无法或不愿意尝试实施它。远程医疗治疗完整性测量旨在描述有效的远程医疗直接治疗的组成部分，包括应从面对面课程推广到远程医疗直接治疗课程的教学方面以及远程医疗直接治疗独有的新元素。包括如何使用该措施来支持直接服务提供者的初始和持续培训的描述。该措施可以支持临床医生确保直接服务提供者在提供远程医疗直接治疗时在其能力范围内工作。
