Prometric service or something similar may be a solution. Test takers can inform examining authority with respect to their condition , accommodations and other needs while submitting their application. The examining authorities can get in-touch with prometric services and prometric service can arrange scribes and these people are responsible for providing training to scribes with respect to reading diagrams, formulas and so on and inform them about ethical practices. Additionally, prometric services will verify test-takers documents, video-tape candidate's responses and so on. In this kind of situation, candidates will go to prometric service location to take their exams. May be a distant possibility.
