Abstract

To increase and organize the evidence for the use of telehealth, the Center for Connected Health Policy (CCHP) has been examining published studies that have been designed to measure the use of telehealth in achieving one or more of the goals of the Triple Aim. CCHP has been cataloguing studies published in peer reviewed journals that meet certain criteria. This catalogue of telemental health studies is one result. CCHP employed several search parameters when selecting telemental health studies. All studies selected are U.S. based, published post 2007, have a sample size of no less than 50 (for studies with control groups, there needed to be a minimum of at least 30 subjects per group), a study period of no less than 6 months and a primary focus on the outcomes, quality and or costs of a selected telehealth modality. Retrospective studies and published pilot studies have been included separately, due to the absence of a widely accepted quality assessment scale for these types of studies. International pilot studies are also included. Only PubMed, ProQuest, EBSCO, and SpringerLink Journals were used in the peer-reviewed articles search. If CCHP was unable to obtain a copy of the full article, it was not included in the catalogue
