Psychiatric News is launching a new column in this issue to alert members about new and revised content on APA’s website at psychiatry.org. Members visiting the website have probably noticed by now that it was updated earlier this year and features a cleaner, streamlined design that requires fewer clicks to reach the desired content, a much-improved search engine, more intuitive navigation, and links to more areas of interest that can be reached directly from the homepage.
Some notable updates to APA’s website include these:
•
New telepsychiatry blog: APA devoted much advocacy effort to retain, either totally or in part, the telehealth flexibilities that were put in place during the COVID-19 public health emergency (PHE). A document posted at this site summarizes current telehealth policies and the policies that will be in effect when the PHE provisions expire. Psychiatrists are also advised to check their teleheath state laws and regulations (see: “Telepsychiatry: Risk Management Best Practices.”).
•
New perinatal research initiative: APA has launched a new initiative with the goal of better understanding the experiences and attitudes of psychiatrists and mental health professionals around treating pregnant women with mental and substance use disorders.
•
Implementation of 988, the new nationwide mental health crisis and suicide prevention number: The hotline goes into effect July 16, but the infrastructure to make it work as intended is not in place in all states.
