Wondered if anyone knows if an autism/adhd assessment is the same via video compared to face to face?

could anything be missed via video?

Our first app was face to face and it was a lot of questions.
Obv he did see him to see some of his traits but it more finding info out about him.

Face to face assessments often, but not always, include an ADOS assessment but that isn’t possible with virtual assessments so some use BOSA instead.

ADOS can’t be done correctly virtually, which is why it was adapted to make BOSA.
