Detailed Answer:
Hello,
Thanks for educating about the new development. I have gone through the guidelines and it is necessary to have two audio visual real time interaction which is again not possible at Healthcaremagic.

In addition the prescriber need to be registered in the state where client resides (New Jersey).

You are requested to contact local mental Health services so you can get the required prescription.

I hope this helps you.
Thanks and regards

I came across https://www.revitalizingpsychiatry.com and they are in telepsychiatry in Florida and have active presence in NJ.

Alternatively you can search over the NJ psychiatry association website to find the next available psychiatrist.
