PODCAST SUMMARY
As of July 2022, 34 States have enacted PsyPact legislation with 31 fully effective participating states. After COVID-19, the participation of states and professionals in PsyPact grew considerably and continues to expand across the country.
The ability to use telepsychology to practice across state lines and expand practice has brought many benefits for patients and providers. However, there are distinct and vital competencies, ethics, and standards that must be addressed, implemented, and maintained. This is particularly true for telepsychology practices (including virtual neuropsychological assessments) with neurologic, medical, and disability populations. Although this technology can break down transportation and geographic barriers, some individuals may require additional assistance to properly utilize telepsychology services.
The PsyPact Bundle Course is a continuing education podcast series which will look at the various advantages and requirements of telepsychology for neurologic, medical, and disability patient groups.
