In February 2020, the U.S. Air Force Medical Service sponsored a 2-day symposium to address ethical aspects of an emerging role for Air Force psychologists, that of embedded behavioral health (EBH) provider. The purpose of the symposium was to begin an organized, intentional, and continuing exploration of ethical issues psychologists and other mental health professionals were likely to encounter in embedded settings. In this article, the authors first describe the origins, format, and conclusions of the symposium and then identify issues discussed at the symposium as essential in formulating a satisfactory and comprehensive ethical framework to govern EBH for psychologists
