Primary care providers (PCPs) are often the first and only resource for rural and frontier residents needing mental health care. Training on mental health issues is not easily accessible for PCPs working in rural settings. Distance education offers a low-cost, convenient alternative for PCPs to obtain the information they need to treat the mental health needs of their patients.
