Telepsychiatry For Organizations
Expand access to behavioral health care at your organization with telepsychiatry.
Expert care. Anywhere.
Your patients can get expert care with telepsychiatry, which uses secure video conference technology for face-to-face appointments with highly qualified mental health providers. We screen and select telespychiatrists, then match them to your culture and your needs. We’re removing geographical barriers to care with telepsychiatry, which enables real-time, high quality appointments using secure video chat technology.
With telepsychiatry, you can create a compassionate, healing environment for your patients.
