Abstract

Given the barriers to accessing health care that are especially relevant for the elderly and people with disabilities, it makes sense that telerehabilitation (TR) would be a modality of service delivery that will be increasingly utilized in the future. To date, its popularity and usage is growing. In order for this service delivery modality to reach its full potential, it will need a stronger evidence base that demonstrates its clinical effectiveness. This discussion addresses the current limitations of the research on TR. Further, it offers guidance on steps that can be taken to begin improving the evidence base of TR. TR has promise as a future clinical service delivery modality in rehabilitation counseling.
