We’re midway through Telehealth Awareness Week, September 14-20, 2025, a national initiative led by the American Telemedicine Association (ATA) that celebrates the vital role telehealth plays in today’s healthcare system. This year’s theme, “Telehealth. Is. Health.”, highlights the way virtual care has become an integral, trusted part of treatment for millions of people across the country.

At New Season Treatment Center, telehealth is more than a convenience—it’s a lifeline for those on their recovery journey. As we join the healthcare community in recognizing Telehealth Awareness Week, we want to share how our Telehealth Program continues to remove barriers, increase access, and deliver compassionate care.

What Telehealth Awareness Week is All About

  • Dates: September 14-20, 2025
  • Purpose: To raise awareness about how telehealth expands access, strengthens outcomes, and makes healthcare more equitable.
  • Events: The ATA is hosting webinars, policy discussions, and social campaigns with hashtags like #TelehealthAwarenessWeek, #TelehealthWorks, and #TelehealthIsHealth.

It’s not too late to join in. The week runs through Saturday, so there are still opportunities to learn, share, and get involved.

How New Season’s Telehealth Program Supports Recovery

At New Season, our telehealth services are designed with one goal in mind: to meet patients where they are.

  • Telecounseling: Licensed counselors provide secure, HIPAA-compliant video sessions that are flexible and easy to access.
  • Telemedicine: Virtual visits with medical providers allow for check-ups, medication management, and, in some states, even new admissions—all from the convenience of home.
  • Privacy & Simplicity: Patients connect through a secure video link (no app download required), ensuring both ease of use and confidentiality.
  • Affordable & Covered: There is no extra charge for telehealth sessions, and most insurance plans cover them just like in-person care.
  • Eligibility: Patients who have completed induction and are stable in their recovery may be eligible, provided they have a private location, video-enabled device, and reliable internet.

Why Telehealth Matters in Addiction Treatment

  • Accessibility: Eliminates travel barriers and reduces scheduling conflicts.
  • Consistency: Makes it easier for patients to attend appointments regularly, improving engagement.
  • Comfort: Allows counseling sessions in familiar, private environments, which can ease difficult conversations.
  • Equity: Supports the ATA’s mission of bringing care to underserved communities through digital health.

How You Can Participate This Week

As Telehealth Awareness Week continues, here’s how you can get involved:

  • Ask about Telehealth: If you’re a New Season patient, speak with your counselor or provider about whether telehealth could be a good fit for you.
  • Engage with ATA Events: The American Telemedicine Association is still hosting virtual sessions and discussions throughout the week.
  • Spread the Word: Use hashtags like #TelehealthAwarenessWeek and #TelehealthIsHealth to share the impact of telehealth on your life or your community.
  • Give Feedback: If you’ve used New Season’s telehealth services, let us know what worked well and how we can improve.

Even after Telehealth Awareness Week ends, our commitment to accessible care continues. At New Season, telehealth will remain a cornerstone of how we deliver treatment—ensuring every patient has the tools and support needed for lasting recovery.
