We are an OP facility owned by a hospital. Typically we are allowed 30-45 min for a treatment session and 45-60min for an eval. It is based on the diagnosis and treatment duration is determined after the intitial eval.

I work school based and the same is true for us 30-45 min sessions with 45-60 min for an eval, although we can spread an eval out over several sessions due to the variations in performance that children often exhibit.
