Bill Summary
A BILL To amend the Internal Revenue Code of 1986 to permanently extend the exemption for telehealth services from certain high deductible health plan rules.
AI Summary
This bill permanently extends the exemption for telehealth services from certain high deductible health plan rules under the Internal Revenue Code of 1986. Specifically, it amends the code to remove the December 31, 2021 expiration date for the exemption, making it a permanent provision. This allows high deductible health plans to continue providing coverage for telehealth services without affecting the plan's eligibility for a health savings account, even after the previous temporary exemption was set to expire.
