Telehealth holds steady as a path to psychiatric care in Florida

Florida allows clinicians licensed by the Florida Board of Medicine to establish a patient-physician relationship and deliver psychiatry through real-time video. Licensure requirements mirror those for in-person care, keeping the standard of care consistent statewide.

Some services still require in-person settings

Florida rules continue to keep certain programs out of telemedicine — including children's day treatment, partial hospitalization programs, residential mental health treatment, and case management delivered to children. Adult evaluation, medication management, and therapy remain fully available online.
