The Untapped Potential of Telepsychiatry for Post-Discharge Care: A Virtual Solution to Improve ED Throughput and Save Lives


Over the last decade, health systems have faced new and expanded challenges that undermine their ability to deliver cost-effective care. From rising demand to staffing crises and evolving economics, the current market environment has strained resources across the board. This strain is especially evident in mental health care, which is increasingly delivered in the emergency department, despite 62% of EDs lacking the services to effectively manage patients in crisis. At Brightside, we believe there is a better way to meet both the clinical and financial needs of acute mental health treatment by leveraging telepsychiatry solutions for post-discharge care.
