Mental health access remains one of the most pressing issues in healthcare today. With psychiatrist shortages, growing patient demand, and rising behavioral health emergencies, hospitals need solutions that work. 

At APA 2025, Access TeleCare’s Vanisa Patel will present her poster, “Telepsychiatry Suicide Prevention Intervention Impact Analysis in the Emergency Department.” This research highlights how virtual behavioral health is improving crisis intervention and expanding access to emergency mental health care. 

Behavioral health is a key area where telemedicine is making a measurable impact. Through on-demand virtual psychiatric consults, hospitals are reducing boarding times, improving patient flow, and providing faster, more effective mental health care.
