Fee Schedule Changes Create Opportunities for Telepsychiatry + Teletherapy

Telebehavioral Health Allows Organizations to Expand Clinical Capacity 

Recent changes to the fee schedule for the Centers for Medicare and Medicaid Services (CMS) are aimed at capacity building for organizations offering mental and behavioral health services.

The changes mean that patients, and organizations offering clinical services, now have access to a wider variety of providers — including licensed professional counselors and therapists. And through telebehavioral health partnerships, like those offered by innovaTel, organizations can more easily improve patient capacity by expanding clinical teams with the addition of remote providers.
