Telepsychology in Pennsylvania is guided by licensure rules and staying within the practitioner’s authorized jurisdiction. You must practice where you’re licensed, adhere to the scope of your license, and follow state-specific requirements for telepractice. Along with that, protecting client privacy and data security is essential, obtaining informed consent specifically for telepsychology is necessary, and having solid risk-management plans is important to handle crises and technology issues. The statement about practicing across state lines regardless of license scope is not a valid consideration because, in practice, you cannot provide telepsychology across state lines without the appropriate license or authorization (such as an applicable interstate compact). So that option describes an impermissible approach, not a legitimate consideration for PA telepsychology.
