Frequently Asked Questions
Can my psychiatrist prescribe medication via telehealth in Maryland?▾
Yes. Maryland allows psychiatric medication management via telehealth when the relationship is established and compliant with state regulations. Your psychiatrist will discuss whether in-person follow-up is clinically necessary for certain conditions or medication classes.
Is telehealth covered by insurance the same way in-person visits are?▾
Most insurance plans cover telehealth psychiatric visits at the same rate as in-person appointments. Insurance information is captured during your intake call and verified by our staff before your first appointment, so you know your coverage upfront.
What technology do I need for a telehealth psychiatry appointment?▾
A computer, tablet, or smartphone with a camera, microphone, and reliable internet connection. You'll receive a secure video link before your appointment; no separate app download is required. Test your connection a few minutes early to ensure everything works.
Are initial psychiatric evaluations available via telehealth?▾
Yes. Initial evaluations can be conducted via telehealth in most cases. Your psychiatrist will review your intake summary and structured clinical information captured on your call, then conduct a full diagnostic assessment via secure video.
Can I switch between telehealth and in-person during my ongoing care?▾
Absolutely. Many patients use a combination—for example, telehealth for routine medication checks and in-person for complex evaluations or when face-to-face interaction feels important. Your preferences are noted in your chart and accommodated at each appointment.
