Bill > H0179

This bill amends existing law to provide for interstate telehealth access. Specifically, it allows healthcare providers who are not licensed in Idaho to provide telehealth services to Idaho residents or individuals located in Idaho, as long as they meet certain requirements. These include holding a valid and unrestricted license from a state with similar licensing requirements, not being subject to disciplinary proceedings, complying with Idaho laws and regulations, maintaining liability insurance, and obtaining an Idaho credential to provide telehealth services. The bill also establishes the Idaho community standard of care, allows for disciplinary action by Idaho licensing authorities, and specifies venue and jurisdiction for civil or administrative actions. The bill authorizes Idaho licensing authorities to promulgate rules to implement these provisions.
