Abstract

The contribution of Telepsychiatry and its applications to the national health care systems of the countries is particularly important, with positive effects according the reviewing bibliography. It is characterized by efficiency as a service with high quality rates and is the only solution for patients from remote areas to contact and access with the providers in the mental health system. Our article highlights the importance of Telepsychiatry minimizing the cost of traveling. Because of reduced published articles in the field our study is also measuring the technology acceptance by Health care professionals of the Psychiatric Sector in Greece. Finally, there are interview responses to four queries derived from the existing literature and experience about the factors influencing the spread of the use of Telepsychiatry and the reduced amount of published articles.
