FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE June 20, 2012 VA to Increase Mental Health Care Access through 200,000 Telemental Health Consultations in 2012 WASHINGTON – In a continuing effort to increase Veterans’ access to mental health care, the Department of Veterans Affairs has set a goal to conduct more than 200,000 telemental health consultations for all mental health specialties in fiscal year 2012. This follows VA’s announcement last month that it would no longer charge Veterans a copayment when they receive care in their homes from VA health professionals using video conferencing. “Telemental health provides Veterans quicker and more efficient access to the types of care they seek,” said Secretary of Veterans Affairs Eric K. Shinseki. “We are leveraging technology to reduce the distance they have to travel, increase the flexibility of the system they use, and improve their overall quality of life. We are expanding the reach of our mental health services beyond our major medical centers and treating Veterans closer to their homes.” The clinic-based telehealth program involves the more than 800 VA community-based outpatient clinics (CBOCs) where many Veterans receive primary care. If the CBOCs do not have a mental health care provider available, secure video teleconferencing technology is used to connect the Veteran to a provider within VA’s nationwide system of care. As a result, Veterans can arrange appointments at times more in synch with their schedules. The program improves access to general and specialty services in geographically remote areas where it can be difficult to recruit mental health professionals. “As technology is improving people’s lives in many areas, telemental health is making access to health care and support easier for Veterans with mental health conditions,” said Dr. Robert A. Petzel, Under Secretary for Health. “For example, one combat Veteran from Iraq cites telemental health as a critical factor in rebuilding her life and coping with the aftermath of Stress Disorder and military sexual trauma. Telemental health offered her a safe and convenient setting to receive gender sensitive services that helped her fit back into civilian life after three months of therapy.” Since the start of the Telemental Health Program, VA has completed over 550,000 patient encounters. In Fiscal Year 2011 alone, more than 140,000 encounters were conducted with

features to consider When choosing a phone to match your particular needs, other possible features and options you might want to consider include: installing extra phone sockets – to make the phone more accessible in different parts of your home keypad beeps – so you know you’ve pressed the buttons an illuminated key pad with clear, good-sized text on screen hearing aid compatibility – so that the phone works with the ‘T’ or loop setting on your hearing aid using a headset to reduce background noise – or, if you wear a hearing aid, using a neck loop (with a digital cordless phone) getting a textphone if you really struggle to hear speech on the phone. Textphones enable you to have phone conversations, either directly or via a relay assistant. Find out more at Mobile phones The vast majority of people today have a mobile phone. These uses radio waves for transmission and signal strength can vary between locations and with different providers. As well as allowing us to make and receive phone calls on the move, mobile phones are extremely useful for text messaging. An increasingly high proportion of mobile phone users now have a ‘smartphone’. Smartphones are operated by a touchscreen and add the functionality of a small computer to your phone – packing in everything from a camera and web browser to a high-density display and voice control. They also offer access to an almost endless array of specialist ‘apps’. Easy to use mobile phones Many people – particularly those who are elderly or who may have an impairment – prefer a mobile phone with limited features making them much easier to use. These are especially helpful for people with limited mobility or dexterity, memory loss and / impaired vision. As well as simplified functions (including texting), features on such easy to use mobile phones (such as the Doro Secure 580) can include: larger buttons
