Bill Summary
A BILL To amend title XVIII of the Social Security Act to permanently extend certain in-home cardiopulmonary rehabilitation flexibilities established in response to COVID- 19, and for other purposes.
AI Summary
This bill aims to permanently extend certain in-home cardiopulmonary rehabilitation flexibilities that were established in response to the COVID-19 pandemic. Specifically, it amends the Social Security Act to allow cardiopulmonary rehabilitation services to be provided in the home, including through telehealth using two-way audio-visual communication technology, or when the home is designated as a provider-based location of a hospital outpatient department. The bill also expands the originating sites for telehealth services to include cardiac rehabilitation, intensive cardiac rehabilitation, and pulmonary rehabilitation programs, even after the end of the COVID-19 public health emergency. Additionally, the bill requires the Secretary of Health and Human Services to establish standards for designating a patient's home as a provider-based location and to include these rehabilitation programs among the telehealth services covered under the Social Security Act.
