Congress Extends Medicare Telehealth Waivers Through December 2027
Congress passed a new legislative package on February 3 that extends Medicare telehealth waivers through the end of 2027, allowing occupational therapy practitioners to keep providing services remotely after a brief lapse caused by budget negotiations and a partial government shutdown. The two-year extension builds on the bipartisan Telehealth Modernization Act and continues policies first introduced during the COVID-19 pandemic. The American Occupational Therapy Association and its partners pushed to make sure occupational therapy remained included, and the organization hopes Congress will use this extra time to create permanent telehealth policies so providers and patients don’t face future disruptions. More updates are expected once CMS releases additional guidance.

The Body Achieves What the Mind Believes.
“The Body Achieves What the Mind Believes” reflects the idea that mindset strongly influences performance and outcomes. When someone truly believes they can improve, succeed, or overcome challenges, that belief shapes their motivation, focus, and resilience — which in turn affects what they physically accomplish. Confidence and positive expectation can push people to train harder, persist longer, and recover from setbacks, while doubt can limit effort before real limits are reached. In this way, the quote suggests that mental attitude isn’t separate from physical results; it often sets the boundaries for what the body is willing and able to do.

It’s the Heart That Really Does the Healing
Ora Ruggles reminds us that true healing goes beyond activity or technique. Engaging the hands may occupy the body, but it is connection, meaning, and compassion that engage the heart. When care reaches the emotional and human core of a person—acknowledging their fears, hopes, and sense of purpose—it awakens an inner strength that no task alone can provide. Healing, at its deepest level, is not something done to a patient, but something that grows within them when the heart is invited to participate.

Speak Easy Rehabilitation helps patients who need occupational, physical, and speech therapy. Give us a call today at 919.346.3350 to schedule a consultation today.

Perception vs Physiology: Assessing the Risk of Dysphagia in Patients With Parkinson’s Disease
This article explores the critical gap between patient perception and physiological reality in swallowing disorders associated with Parkinson’s disease, drawing from both clinical experience and research. Northwestern University's, Dr. Rabab Rangwala describes how dysphagia in Parkinson’s is often “silent,” with patients under-reporting difficulties despite clear signs of impairment observed by caregivers and instrumental assessments.

Research involving individuals with Parkinson’s disease confirms that patient self-ratings frequently fail to reflect the severity of swallowing dysfunction, in part due to sensory deficits, cognitive changes, disrupted breathing-swallowing coordination, and subtle compensatory behaviors. The article emphasizes that relying solely on either patient reports or objective data is insufficient; instead, effective dysphagia management requires integrating patient-reported outcomes, caregiver observations, and instrumental evaluations. By bridging perception and physiology through interdisciplinary collaboration and person-centered care, clinicians can better identify risk, prevent complications such as aspiration pneumonia, and preserve dignity, safety, and quality of life for individuals with Parkinson’s disease.

NC SLP Spotlighted as Medicaid Cuts Impact Practices
Recent Medicaid funding changes are putting pressure on speech-language pathologists, especially in North Carolina. After the federal One Big Beautiful Bill Act shifted more Medicaid costs to states, North Carolina introduced reimbursement cuts of 3%–10% despite strong advocacy from ASHA and NCSHLA. Although Governor Josh Stein later reversed those cuts, the state still doesn’t have a budget and could face Medicaid funding issues this spring. Providers like private practice owner Stephanie Molina say the uncertainty and payment reductions make it harder to pay staff and keep services available, showing how federal policy changes are already affecting care at the community level.

5 CBT Techniques ABA Professionals Use to Change Lives—Here’s How They Work
Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) is a powerful, solution-focused approach that helps people break free from negative thinking patterns shaped by trauma, anxiety, addiction, and everyday stress. ABA (Applied Behavior Analysis) professionals often rely on five essential CBT tools—cognitive journaling, guided discovery, cognitive restructuring, mindfulness and relaxation strategies, and exposure therapy—to help clients understand their thoughts, challenge harmful beliefs, and build healthier mental habits.

From tracking emotional triggers to safely confronting long-standing fears, these techniques empower individuals to take control of their inner experiences and create meaningful, lasting change. When combined, they form a transformative path toward resilience, clarity, and emotional balance. For those considering a career in ABA or mental health, mastering these CBT strategies opens the door to making a real and lasting impact in others’ lives.
