Our colleagues at BlueSprig announced a new publication in Behavior Analysis in Practice, a peer-reviewed journal of the Association for Behavior Analysis International. The study sought to determine the effectiveness of incorporating Floreo's VR technology in teaching skills to participants and examined indices of participant happiness while using the technology.

The researchers also evaluated whether skills developed with VR equipment could be generalized to a natural environment. The study found that children not only expressed happiness while participating in simulations but also developed skills that were maintained once they stopped using the technology. Parents of the participants also reported that the technology positively enhanced treatment programs.

We are thrilled to see more published research on the positive outcomes of using VR for therapy! 

Paid research opportunity

FOR PARENTS AND CAREGIVERS

A major non-profit is sponsoring a series of interviews with South Asian, Asian American, and Pacific Islander parents and caregivers of children who have been professionally diagnosed with autism or autism spectrum disorder. The study's overall objective is to explore perceptions of research studies investigating autism.

These interviews are led by a professional research moderator from the AAPI community. The sessions are confidential, only first names are used. These one-hour interviews will be held from September 30 through October 6, over Zoom. Sessions are scheduled based on your availability. Participants will receive $150 in compensation for their time.

For Clinics

USING THE CPT III CODE 0770T

If your clinic is not already using the Floreo-sponsored CPT III code for virtual reality-assisted therapy (code 0770T), you should be! Not only can you be reimbursed for sessions in which you use Floreo, but you are also helping us pave the way to a CPT I code. If you have questions about using the code, please reach out and we will help to support your submissions using it!

Listen to Floreo's Founder/CEO, Vijay Ravindran, discuss why it is so important to start adding 0770T to your billing process!
