Bill overview
The Telehealth Modernization Act extends key telehealth flexibilities under Medicare, primarily through 2027. It removes geographic restrictions on telehealth locations, expands the list of practitioners who can provide telehealth services, and extends these benefits to federally qualified health centers and rural health clinics. The bill also delays in-person requirements for mental health services delivered via telehealth, allows for audio-only telehealth services, and extends the use of telehealth for hospice care encounters. Finally, it includes provisions to improve telehealth access for individuals with limited English proficiency and streamlines the process for in-home cardiopulmonary rehabilitation.
