Wisconsin allows for telehealth, but there are no licensing board rules specific to the practice of audiology and speech-language pathology. Providers must generally adhere to the same requirements as in-person practice.
Nonresidents who are licensed in another U.S. state or jurisdiction with substantially equivalent standards may receive a limited permit to practice speech-language pathology or audiology for a period not to exceed 45 days per calendar year.
