Bill overview
This bill, the Advancing Telehealth Beyond COVID-19 Act of 2020, aims to make telehealth more accessible and permanent by giving the Secretary of Health and Human Services greater authority to waive Medicare coverage restrictions. It permanently allows federally qualified health centers and rural health clinics to serve as telehealth locations, and clarifies rules around providing telehealth technologies to Medicare beneficiaries to prevent fraud and abuse. The bill seeks to build on the telehealth expansion seen during the COVID-19 pandemic.
