Bill > HF2192

This bill amends the existing law to require health carriers (insurance providers) to reimburse health care professionals and facilities for health care services provided to covered persons (insured individuals) through telehealth at the same rate as if the services were provided in-person. It also prohibits health carriers from requiring an additional health care professional to be present in the same room as the covered person during telehealth visits for mental health services. The bill applies to telehealth services provided on or after January 1, 2021.
