INTRODUCTION

• Behavioral healthcare is becoming more and more
  focused due to the need for attending to one's
  mental health has increased with the arrival of
  the Covid-19 pandemic. 
• The pandemic showed people how their mental
  health can be affected overnight if not tended to
  properly. This increased access to behavioral
  health over the last few years. This in turn
  opened opportunities for more practices to
  integrate behavioral services with many
  healthcare platforms which helps the related
  patients.

The Continuous Need For Behavioral Health
Services IN 2022

• The consequent habits which affect our general
  well-being, emotions, biology, and behavior
  generally refer to behavioral health. It is often
  confused or interchangeably used with mental
  health. But it is a more wide-ranged term that
  integrates not just our mental wellness, but the
  paths or ways through which our mind travels in
  real life.

Monitoring behavioral health becomes a great
challenge for both the physician and the
caretaker of the patient. This comes in handy
when behavioral health is collided with
telehealth by the providers.

The Continuous Need For Behavioral Health
Services IN 2022 (cont..)

• Telehealth uses many means to bridge the gap
  between doctors and their patients. This ensures
  immediate care delivery.
• As the pandemic reduced its effect on the world,
  it is continuously being one of the major reasons
  for behavioral changes in people. Their overall
  mental and physical well-being are being impacted
  negatively more than ever.

Telehealth In This New Era

• Healthcare these days is very much digitalized.
  Telehealth bridges the gaps between healthcare
  providers and patients. The majority of the
  services are automated so that both the providers
  and the patients benefit from their use.
• Telehealth refers to the healthcare services
  provided through virtual means. This allows one
  to reach and communicate with their healthcare
  providers safely and quickly by using simple
  telecommunication techniques. Such as telephonic
  chats, live video calls, health apps, remote
  patient monitoring, etc.

6
Telehealth In This New Era (cont..)

• In January 2020, the U.S. federal government
  proclaimed that Covid-19 was a public health
  emergency (PHE). This declaration has since been
  frequently renewed, most recently on November 02,
  2021.

The report says Section 123 of the CAA removed
the geographic restrictions and added the home of
the beneficiary as a permissible originating site
for telehealth services furnished for the
purposes of diagnosis, evaluation, or treatment
of a mental health disorder.

Changes In Our Healthcare System- The Access

• Telehealth facilitates behavioral healthcare via
  telemedicine technologies, particularly for
  traditionally underserved communities promoting
  growth in diabetes prevention programs (another
  important aspect of behavioral health) and
  increasing payments for vaccine administration. 

8
Changes In Our Healthcare System- The Access
(cont..)
Behavioral medicine has been acknowledged by the
Centers for Medicare Medicaid Services (CMS),
as it changed well due to the COVID-19 PHE. The
access to behavioral health services via
telemedicine has remarkably increased for many
people to whom the service delivery was big
trouble in the past.

• Certain telehealth services that were temporarily
  added to the Medicare telehealth services list
  during the COVID-19 PHE have been added to the
  Medicare telehealth services list and will remain
  on the list through December 31, 2023.

  continue to break barriers that prevented early
  basic care deliveries to unreachable rural
  geographical areas in 2022.This offers more
  security, convenience, and privacy.
• The removal of geographical restrictions allows
  the patients to avail of behavioral-telehealth
  services in their homes which increases
  comfortability and increases the chances of more
  positive patient outcomes.

• The patients can also have additional visits
  depending on their clinical needs.
• The people in rural areas were not able to reach
  specialized consultations and care before. But
  with the help of telehealth, this obstacle can be
  overcome by using telemedicine, remote patient
  monitoring (RPM), etc.

Benefits Of Telehealth And Behavioral Health
Telebehavioral Health (cont..)

• Providing behavioral health via telehealth has to
  face many challenges. So a well-planned system
  must be created. This need of tackling challenges
  promotes the healthcare providers to find more
  solutions and innovative mediums that directly
  promote the growth of their platform and also the
  industry as a whole.
• Behavioral health via telehealth will help people
  who are less confident and unwilling to seek help
  one-on-one. Their details and whereabouts will be
  confidentially maintained, and only if they are
  comfortable with the service and the provider,
  they can continue working with them. There will
  be no compulsion.
