In partnership with the American Academy of Child & Adolescent Psychiatry, APA developed this toolkit to address the issues unique to practicing telepsychiatry with children and adolescents. The mission of AACAP is to promote the healthy development of children, adolescents and families through advocacy, education and research, and to meet the professional needs of child and adolescent psychiatrists throughout their careers.
The Toolkit covers topics in telepsychiatry related to history, training, practice/clinical issues, reimbursement, and legal issues from leading child and adolescent psychiatrists.
