Mental health prescriptions by video

Posted on April 22, 2018

I reported previously (Nov 2014) about Israel’s Talkspace that provides on-line psychological advice. Now US therapist physicians will begin prescribing medication using Talkspace’s video chat facility to comply with state and federal regulations. Talkspace already has 1 million users. https://www.calcalistech.com/ctech/articles/0,7340,L-3736100,00.html
