Abstract

This article describes the Personalized Implementation for Video Telehealth strategy to increase adoption of video telehealth to home (VTH) across a large, urban Veterans Health Administration medical center and applications for broader use in non-VHA settings. The authors fully integrated VTH into existing mental health clinics, resulting in (1) a significant increase in the number of patients receiving VTH, (2) a significant increase in the number of VTH visits relative to median national improvement, (3) a greater number of unique specialty mental health clinics offering VTH in Houston, and (4) a greater number of community clinics active in delivering VTH.
