TL;DR: Internet-Based Telemental Health Models of Care Today and Patient Appropriateness for Videoconferencing-Based telemental health are introduced.

TL;DR: In this article, a survey of 164 professional psychologists focused on the current and anticipated use of telecommunication technologies in delivering telebehavioral health services, including telecommunication modalities currently used in clinical practice, ethical and legal/regulatory concerns related to delivery of TBH services, and educational and training needs for TBH practice.

TL;DR: Care delivered by TBH may require additional skills—or adjusted behaviors—compared to in-person care, and standards and guidelines typically do not focus on competencies, are complex, and are frequently incomplete.

TL;DR: The survey found that telehealth services are being reimbursed by private payers but that progress in reimbursement has been relatively slow compared with government-reimbursed services across the United States.

TL;DR: A review of the TBH evidence-based literature across psychiatry/medicine, psychology, social work, counseling, marriage/family, behavioral analysis, and other behavioral sciences found no common TBH competencies across disciplines.
