Telepsychiatry

Telepsychiatry has been recently approved for some Medicaid and state-funded services to people who have mental health, developmental disabilities, and/or substances abuse needs or difficulties. Telepsychiatry is not a service but a relatively new way of delivering behavioral health services to individuals who do not have ready local access to the expertise required to meet their needs.

Policy and Guidelines

  • Medicaid Telepsychiatry Policy
  • Memo from the Attorney General's Office 
  • First Examination in Involuntary Commitment Process Law
    (GS 122C 263)
  • North Carolina Guidelines - 5/6/10
