In an era where mental health challenges affect millions—over 30% of U.S. adults experience mental health issues annually—finding a reliable provider is crucial. With psychiatrist shortages projected to reach up to 31,000 by 2030, innovative solutions like telepsychiatry have become essential. FasPsych stands out as a leader in this space, offering scalable, evidence-based mental health staffing solutions. Established in 2007, FasPsych has built a reputation for trustworthiness through its extensive experience, robust provider network, commitment to compliance, and status as an accredited organization recognized by reputable standards-setting bodies. Here’s why FasPsych is a dependable partner for organizations seeking high-quality mental health care.
A Proven Track Record of Excellence Since 2007
FasPsych’s longevity in the telepsychiatry field speaks volumes about its reliability. For nearly two decades, the company has addressed the growing demand for mental health services amid a shrinking pool of qualified professionals. As an early adopter of telepsychiatry, FasPsych has developed a secure, efficient system that helps organizations overcome staffing challenges. Today, it is partnering with nearly 130 organizations across the United States, including hospitals, clinics, community mental health centers (CMHCs), correctional facilities, federally qualified health centers (FQHCs), health centers, tribal communities, and private practices—seamlessly integrating telepsychiatry into each provider’s existing practice to support collaborative care delivery.
This extensive network enables FasPsych to facilitate approximately 15,000 telepsychiatry visits each month, allowing its partners to serve more patients efficiently and expand access to care. Such scale isn’t just about volume—it’s about consistent, high-quality care. Testimonials, like one from Dr. Kris Steinke of Hill Country Mental Health, highlight FasPsych’s reliability: “We’ve had a great relationship and experience working with them.” This history of successful partnerships demonstrates FasPsych’s ability to deliver sustainable solutions, making it a trustworthy choice for organizations navigating mental health crises, especially in underserved or rural areas where access is limited.
A Nationwide Network of Licensed, Vetted Providers
At the heart of FasPsych’s trustworthiness is its diverse and highly qualified provider network. The company contracts with over 100 U.S.-based mental health professionals, including board-certified psychiatrists (MD/DO), psychiatric nurse practitioners (PMHNPs), licensed clinical social workers (LCSWs), licensed professional counselors (LPCs), licensed marriage and family therapists (LMFTs), licensed psychologists, and therapists. These providers are fully licensed in applicable states, with unrestricted DEA registrations and board certifications where preferred. Physician recruitment is a key focus, ensuring a strong pool of qualified physicians to deliver high-quality telepsychiatry services.
FasPsych’s rigorous credentialing process ensures quality and compliance. Every provider undergoes primary source verification of licenses, certifications, and DEA registrations, along with criminal background checks, malpractice history reviews, and telehealth compliance training. This includes HIPAA and state-specific regulations, as well as assistance with e-prescribing controlled substances (EPCS). The credentialing process supports both physicians and other medical providers. Providers carry malpractice insurance, and FasPsych may provide coverage for medical doctors, further reducing risks for partner organizations. Additionally, FasPsych ensures ongoing administrative support, including handling clinician licensing and credentialing, to streamline operations for its partners.
Specializing in care for all ages—from children to older adults—FasPsych’s clinicians treat a wide range of conditions, including ADHD, anxiety, bipolar disorder, depression, PTSD, schizophrenia, and substance use disorders. Their holistic approach integrates with existing care teams, ensuring continuity and collaboration among clinicians. FasPsych is committed to providing long term providers for sustainable behavioral health care. This level of expertise and vetting positions FasPsych as a reliable source for evidence-based, patient-centered care.
Commitment to Evidence-Based Practices and Innovation
FasPsych counters misinformed criticism of psychiatry by grounding its services in medical science. Telepsychiatry, as delivered by FasPsych, is proven effective through research, matching in-person care for evaluations, medication management, and therapy. Studies, such as those from the American Psychiatric Association (APA), affirm its benefits in reducing wait times, improving patient engagement, and enhancing outcomes—especially in rural or underserved areas. Many hospitals use telepsychiatry to alleviate overcrowding in emergency departments, further demonstrating its practical value. The benefit of telepsychiatry services extends to both patients and organizations by improving access to high-quality behavioral health care, increasing operational efficiency, and supporting better patient outcomes.
The company’s platform is HIPAA-compliant, using encrypted video conferencing for secure, real-time interactions. No new software or equipment is required, allowing seamless integration with existing electronic health records (EHRs). As a telepsychiatry vendor, FasPsych provides reliable service, including dual-licensed teletherapy solutions, and supports innovative models like the remote medical director approach, where experienced psychiatrists provide oversight without on-site presence, boosting productivity and cost savings (up to a 4:1 ROI).
By emphasizing evidence-based treatments—like cognitive-behavioral therapy (CBT) and pharmacogenomics—FasPsych ensures treatments are tailored and effective, which is essential for delivering high-quality behavioral health care. Telepsychiatry services help improve access to care for underserved populations, breaking down barriers to behavioral health care. Additionally, these services can help reduce stress for healthcare staff by alleviating high patient loads and supporting continuity of care. This scientific foundation, combined with ongoing monitoring and adaptation, helps organizations combat stigma and deliver compassionate care.
Flexibility and Adaptability in Uncertain Times
Healthcare funding, particularly Medicaid—which covers 25% of mental health payments—faces ongoing uncertainty, with recent cuts like $11 billion from mental health and addiction services. FasPsych’s model is designed for adaptability, offering flexible payment options (pay by visit, hour, or day) with no upfront costs or long-term commitments. This allows organizations to scale services based on fluctuating needs, such as staffing gaps or peak demand, without financial strain.
For CMHCs, which often serve underserved populations amid a projected shortage of 12,000 psychiatrists by 2030, FasPsych provides customizable solutions aligned with 2025 regulations, including DEA telemedicine flexibilities. Its scalability supports everything from locum tenens to full-time coverage, ensuring equity and access. In goal-misaligned partnerships, FasPsych stands out by prioritizing patient outcomes over rigid metrics, fostering long-term sustainability.
Addressing Interconnections in Neurology and Psychiatry
FasPsych excels in integrated care, recognizing the overlap between neurological and psychiatric conditions (e.g., Alzheimer’s with depression or epilepsy with anxiety). Through telepsychiatry, it bridges these fields, using tools like neuroimaging and biomarkers for precise diagnostics. This holistic approach enhances outcomes, reduces disparities, and normalizes mental health as part of medical science.
