Talkiatry Launches Embedded EMR Tool to Streamline Psychiatric Referrals for Health Systems

New updates have been reported about Talkiatry.

Talkiatry has introduced Talkiatry Connect, an embedded referral tool that sits inside cloud-based electronic medical records and allows primary care physicians and specialists to identify and refer patients for psychiatric care without leaving their existing workflows. The product places Talkiatry at the point of care by surfacing an icon in the EMR that flags when a patient may need behavioral health support and enables one-click referrals with chart data automatically populated, reducing friction that often leads to missed or delayed mental health interventions.

With patient consent, referring providers can also receive visit summaries and track ongoing progress directly through the EMR, supporting tighter collaboration and continuity of care that aligns with value-based and outcome-focused contracting trends. Talkiatry Connect currently supports more than 30 cloud-based EMR platforms, deploys in days without additional technical overhead or cost to partners, and is already live at New York Cancer & Blood Specialists, signaling early adoption in complex specialty settings where integrated psychiatric care can affect both clinical outcomes and total cost of care.
