      There are many advantages to providing telemedicine therapy, but you should also be aware of the potential drawbacks as a therapist. The most important of them are law and regulation issues affecting all forms of telehealth.

      Privacy
      Credentialing
      Inappropriate medical care
      Security
      Fraud
      Privileging
      Payment
      Coverage
      Abuse
      Controlled substance prescriptions are filled online.
      Certification of medical personnel
      Performing Preventative Measures on Equipment

      The ever-increasing sophistication of telemedicine and telehealth allows medical professionals to serve their patients with ever-higher standards of care in ever-more-secure settings. It would be best if you realized that every state is moving toward having more clearly defined laws, rules, policies, and regulations for telehealth, even though there are many difficult ones. Before providing telehealth therapy, you should look at all of these factors.
