AI Summary
This bill, the Telehealth Expansion Act of 2021, aims to permanently extend the exemption for telehealth services from certain high deductible health plan rules under the Internal Revenue Code of 1986. Specifically, it removes the current December 31, 2021 expiration date for this exemption, allowing plans to continue offering telehealth services without being subject to the regular high deductible health plan rules. This change is intended to provide ongoing flexibility and support for the use of telehealth services, which have become increasingly important during the COVID-19 pandemic.
