Telemental Health Hawaii
Online Counseling SessionsSeveral causes have increased the popularity of telemental health services. Because the mental health of my patients is important regardless of the circumstances, I can now provide mental health services through video conferencing services, supported by email and phone calls, so that you are never without the support you need. As a licensed mental health counselor, protecting your personal information is something that we are trained to do and is of the utmost importance to me and my practice. Telemental health services observe the HIPAA guidelines concerning telemedicine, which indicate that no one except the authorized user can access your information and that appropriate platforms that provide end-to-end user data encryption must be employed during each session. Fortunately, many insurance plans now cover telemental health services just like they do for in-person services. Therefore, even when you can’t physically make it in to my office, you’ll receive the same quality care in the comfort of your home. If you have more questions that aren't answered here about the use of Telehealth and/or HIPAA privacy laws, you can refer to the U.S. Department of Health and Human Services' website. |
