Even before the COVID-19 pandemic, telebehavioral health (TBH) was proving itself to be a valuable, effective tool for service delivery. The widespread adoption of its use over the past 2 years for continuity of care should be considered one of the silver linings of the pandemic. It has the potential to be a particularly powerful tool for providing more equitable access to care for those in rural communities if barriers to broadband access can be addressed. In addition to providing an attractive, flexible method of service delivery for patients and families, TBH holds appeal to the workforce as well.
即使在 COVID-19 大流行之前,远程行为健康(TBH)已经被证明是一种有价值的、有效的服务提供工具。在过去的 2 年中,为了保持护理的连续性,远程行为健康的广泛采用应该被视为大流行的一线希望之一。如果能够解决宽带接入的障碍,它有可能成为为农村社区的人提供更公平的医疗机会的一个特别有力的工具。除了为患者和家庭提供有吸引力的、灵活的服务提供方法之外,远程行为健康也吸引了劳动力。
