    I'm an office manager and we just added Telehealth because of the current health situation. (At least) one of my clinicians is not able to see the telehealth office option on the mobile app which means she can't set up telehealth appointments and she can't start a video call from the app. Is there something we need to do to allow that functionality from our side (or from within her app)? If not, who can I contact to help with the problem?

    I am seeking to do a supervision session, and we are both on the SP platform.

    Is it possible to have a video conference session with another simple practice user without creating them as a client?

    Hi Felix, you'll need to create your supervisee/supervisor a Client profile to generate a Telehealth link for your call.

    Hi,

    I have been trying to use  telehealth the last few days. Yesterday was find, but today the video comes up and either I can hear the person, but they can't hear me or vice versa.

    Thanks,

    Hi Maggie,

    If you're experiencing issues with conducting a Telehealth video call, I recommend following these steps first:

    Next, you can use TokBox's Pre-call Tool to make sure that you and your clients are set up for success in your appointments.

    Also, in order to make sure your microphone and camera, as well as your clients' microphones and cameras are enabled for Telehealth, please review this guide on Getting Started with Telehealth.

    In the meantime, you can find more detailed information about our Telehealth feature and best practices for usage from the following Help Center guides:

    Hi,

    I am considering adding Telehealth to my current SimplePractice account. I do have a few questions:

    -Does SimplePractice Telehealth offer screen sharing capabilities? 

    -When does the client receive the link for our session? When it is scheduled? 

    Thank you!

    Tania

    Happy to help, Tania. SimplePractice's Telehealth platform includes built-in screensharing. The client receives the link for the Telehealth session 10 minutes prior to the session in an Email Reminder. Clients must be enrolled in Email Reminders to receive the link automatically.

    is there a free trial for the telehealth platform?   

    I am doing a session with a parent and don't have their email on file.   How do I send them the link?

    Hi Debra, happy to help. All SimplePractice customers receive a free 30-day trial of Telehealth by SimplePractice during their initial trial period. 

    Because the client does not have an email on file, SimplePractice cannot send the link to the client automatically. To share the link with the client outside of SimplePractice, click on the Calendar appointment for the session, click Copy Link, and send it to the client outside of SimplePractice.

    Hello,

     How can I generate a sign in and out report per case for all telehealth appointments completed?

    Hi Yazmin - Currently, there isn't a way for you to get a record of your Telehealth call logs and their duration. However, I'd encourage you to add this to our Ideas and Suggestions Board for further consideration.
