ABSTRACT
By collapsing distances, crossing borders, and creating new definitions of care and new ways to deliver it, the psychotechnologies raise a confusing array of national and international legal, regulatory, and reimbursement issues. This chapter is restricted to aspects of privacy and confidentiality, security of information, regulation of health care devices, electonic signatures, licensure, and reimbursement. These are the issues of most immediate relevance to clinical practice.
