Behavioral Telehealth

The Centers for Medicare & Medicaid Services (CMS) define telehealth as “a two-way, real-time interactive communication between a patient and a physician or practitioner at a distant site through telecommunications equipment that includes, at a minimum, audio and visual equipment.”

Busy professionals can access therapy during non-working hours with more ease.

Treatment can happen quicker in many cases using telehealth.
