About Zoom for Healthcare
Zoom for Healthcare is Zoom's HIPAA-compliant telehealth platform used by thousands of mental health providers for video therapy sessions. Unlike consumer Zoom, the healthcare version includes a Business Associate Agreement (BAA), enhanced security features, and compliance documentation required for medical use. Many therapists, psychiatrists, and healthcare systems use Zoom for Healthcare for patient appointments. If your therapist uses Zoom, they're likely using this HIPAA-compliant version. The platform supports waiting rooms, screen sharing for worksheets, and cloud recording (with consent). Patients join through a link—no account required.
