Telepsychiatry Evaluations

Please note: This opportunity is limited to patients with insurance that is accepted by the Michigan Medicine Department of Psychiatry.

We offer in-home, video-based patient evaluations as a follow-up to same-day phone consultations statewide to all MC3-enrolled providers. This enhanced service component includes a one-time patient psychiatric evaluation of the patient and recommendations to the primary care provider for ongoing care.

Following the evaluation, the local Behavioral Health Consultant will follow up with the patient to provide local resources based on the recommendations provided by the consulting psychiatrist.

How do I refer patients?

Call your regional number to initiate a same-day phone consultation to review the patient with the consulting psychiatrist. If it is decided that a Telepsychiatry Evaluation is the best next step, then your local Behavioral Health Consultant will help you coordinate the telepsychiatry referral.
