Abstract
Active telepsychiatry services in the United States were surveyed. Telepsychiatry was being used in four broad areas: educational, administrative, research, and clinical. Of the five telepsychiatry sites with accurate patient contact data, there was a mean of 1.35 patient contacts per week. The majority of telepsychiatry usage involved direct physician-patient contact. No adverse outcomes to patients were reported.
