Telepsikiyatri, günümüzün hızla değişen sağlık sisteminin ortaya çıkardığı, hem hastaya hem de klinisyene yararları olan bir uygulamadır. Son yıllarda taşınabilir bilgisayarların yaygınlaşması ve güvenilir iletişim sistemlerinin geliştirilmesi, telepsikiyatrinin dilenen yer ve zamanda sunumunun önünü açmıştır.

Bugüne kadar elde edilen deneyimler, değişen ekonomik ve sosyal parametreler ile büyüyen sağlık sisteminin beklentileri göz önünde tutulduğunda; klinisyenlerin yakın bir gelecekte telepsikiyatriye uyum sağlayacak bir platforma hazırlıklı olması önerilebilir.
