“I realize I’m late to the party, but I was just tipped off to these episodes. I wish I could give 2.5 stars. I’m a Psychiatric Nurse Practitioner and have spent a lot of time on telehealth in the last few years. Also, I’m generally not a fan of Cerebral and some of their ilk (I’m looking at you, Done). However, this topic deserves a much deeper dive and a lot more input from outside sources than was provided. By focusing on the single case of Anthony, they have painted an entire healthcare field with a broad brush instead of focusing on where Cerebral went wrong in the more general sense. Also, there was some real fear-mongering around medications to treat depression. In the case of Anthony, they really harped on “how did a minor get a prescription for an anti-depressant?” This may be a perfectly reasonable question in Missouri, but these rules vary significantly between states. Many states have lower ages of consent for treatment to allow adolescents to receive treatment without parents preventing it. WSJ is a national publication and this is broadcast worldwide, some caveats could have been included. Like, “despite the FDA warning, these treatments for depression have helped millions of people”. The story of Anthony didn’t even have anything to do with controlled substances. They got all into Cerebral’s drive to prescribe controlled substances, and then completely detoured into an admittedly tragic story that had nothing to do with them playing fast and loose with DEA rules. I’m worried that all they did was scratch the surface on this worrisome trend (telehealth companies handing out controlled substances for a subscription fee to maximize profits) and in the end just made people afraid to get treatment. Or even worse, made parents afraid to get treatment for their kids.”
