Telemental Health Utilization in Commercial Health Insurance Plans in the United States From 2010 Through 2019

Conclusions: Telemental health utilization comprised a small fraction of overall mental health services and beneficiaries in the IQVIA PharMetrics Plus claims data, but increased over time, with differences documented in utilization based on patient gender, patient age, geographic region, and type of telemental health claim. Evidence from this study may serve as a pre-pandemic baseline for comparison against future evaluations of telehealth expansion policies.PMID:38019591 | DOI:10.4088/JCP.23m14931
