Augusta Health increasing use of telehealth services

Augusta Health Outpatient Behavioral Health has implemented Telehealth to provide community care without people having to leave their homes and risking exposure.

Some details on how Outpatient Behavioral Health’s Telehealth works:

• All intakes appointments, individual appointments and follow-ups will be scheduled by Telehealth only.
• The Telehealth audio/visual session will be held using Doxy.Me, which is a secure and HIPAA compliant platform.

Behavioral Health hours are

• Monday through Thursday, 8 a.m. – 5 p.m.
• Fridays 9 a.m. – 2 p.m. beginning April 3

Call (540) 213-2525 to schedule an appointment.
