Access TeleCare’s telepsychiatry services can help hospitals reduce outpatient behavioral health appointment wait times by adding virtual psychiatric capacity for evaluations, medication management, talk therapy, and follow-up appointments. Instead of waiting for limited local clinician availability, outpatient teams can schedule patients with Access TeleCare clinicians through the hospital or clinic’s existing practice management system. Access TeleCare’s model is designed to help hospitals move patients into care sooner, including from clinic-based telehealth rooms or the patient’s home when appropriate. Actual wait-time improvement depends on patient demand, staffing needs, and program design.
