60-min sessions of PE are noninferior to 90-min sessions with regard to both efficacy and efficiency. Thus, PE can be effectively delivered in shorter sessions, making it easier for behavioral health providers to implement within the military health system and in other mental health systems that use 60-min session appointments.
