Why telehealth matters in Texas

More than three quarters of Texas counties have no practicing psychiatrist. The shortage is worst along the border, across West Texas, and in the rural east, where the nearest prescriber can be several hours away and the nearest one who takes insurance further still. Texas also has one of the highest uninsured rates in the country, which compounds the distance problem with a cost problem.

Telehealth reaches patients anywhere in Texas. Self-pay pricing is published and a sliding scale is available, because for many Texas patients cost is the barrier that matters more than distance.
