Listen Later

This video provides a detailed walkthrough of the most common questions psychologists have about PSYPACT. The content comes from real provider questions I’ve gathered over the past year and is designed to help you understand how PSYPACT functions in day-to-day clinical practice. 

This video covers:

  • Clear definitions of E.Passport, APIT, and TAP
  • How PSYPACT jurisdiction works (home state, receiving state, distant state)
  • What laws apply when you and your patient are in different states
  • How to apply for or renew your E.Passport and APIT
  • CE requirements related to technology and telepsychology
  • Documentation expectations, including location, consent, and emergency planning
  • Temporary in-person practice rules and TAP day limits
  • Considerations when you travel or when patients travel
  • Common logistical questions psychologists run into during application or renewal

    • You’ll also find guidance on where to locate up-to-date PSYPACT rules, how to connect with PSYPACT staff, and how to use directories to help clients find authorized providers. You can also get CE's for watching this webinar.
