Mentavi analysis shows online behavioral health evaluations reach unserved areas
Original: Mentavi Analysis at 2026 NEI Fall Congress: Online Behavioral Health Evaluations Reach ZIP Codes With No Psychiatrists
New analysis from Mentavi, presented at the 2026 NEI Fall Congress, indicates that online behavioral health evaluations are reaching ZIP codes across the United States that have no resident psychiatrists. The findings highlight how telehealth services are expanding access to mental health care in areas where in-person psychiatric resources are absent, a gap widely reported as growing nationwide.
Why now: The analysis was presented at a major psychiatry congress amid ongoing concern about shortages of psychiatrists in rural and underserved American communities.
