As a client or patient receiving behavioral services through telebehavioral health technologies, I understand:

Telebehavioral health is the delivery of behavioral health services using interactive technologies (use of audio, video or other electronic communications) between a practitioner and a client/patient who are not in the same physical location.

The interactive technologies used in telebehavioral health incorporate network and software security protocols to protect the confidentiality of client/patient information transmitted via any electronic channel. These protocols include measures to safeguard the data and to aid in protecting against intentional or unintentional corruption.
