Seeing a psychiatrist in another province by telehealth is often not straightforward, because physicians generally must be licensed in the jurisdiction where the patient is located. College policies and FMRAC telemedicine principles are commonly cited for that idea. A video appointment does not by itself create a licence in the province where you are sitting.
