AAPA Fall Workshops OCTOBER 21, 2016
Afternoon Workshop
The use of "technology-assisted media" in the delivery of mental health services (or TeleMental Health) has generated a lot of confusion and controversy. Basically, if a device requires electricity and you're using it to deliver mental health care, you're practicing TeleMental Health. This includes phones (voice and texts), computers & tablets (email, billing, or storage of files), fax machines, the Internet (cloud storage of records, billing transactions, video-conferencing, or even recommending apps and websites to clients). There is a multitude of ethical issues and requirements related to each of these options. This is why Georgia's Composite Board recently passed regulations requiring masters level therapists to complete six hours of training in TeleMental Health. Additionally, the Georgia Board of Psychology has also drafted new regulations awaiting approval. This workshop will help clarify numerous concerns and address the ethical requirements and considerations we all need to be making. Learning Objectives: • Explain what constitutes "TeleMental Health" and "Technology-Assisted Media." • Describe how the HIPAA Business Associate Agreement fits into the HIPAA Security Ruling as it pertains to Electronic Protected Health
Information (EPHI) and what you need to know about protecting your electronic transactions and maintaining confidentiality. • Review evidence regarding the benefits and limitations of TeleMental Health services. • Assess the dangers of practicing across state lines and the options available to do so legally. • Identify HIPAA compatible video, texting, and emailing and where to go to stay up on the most recent options. • Summarize what you need to include in your Informed Consent to Treatment if you're practicing TeleMental Health (which does include using
the telephone for crisis calls and even recommending apps and websites). • Demonstrate ways to respond to and manage emergencies, including a thorough assessment of client fit for technology-assisted media. • Explain important TeleMental Health details such as verifying a client's identity and how to bill appropriately for your services. • Identify the TeleMental Health issues related to recommending Apps and Websites and how to do so ethically.
