AI Summary
This bill amends Section 105h of the Michigan Social Welfare Act to require that reimbursement rates for telehealth visits under the state's Medicaid and Healthy Michigan programs be the same as reimbursement rates for in-person office visits. The bill expands the eligible originating sites for telehealth services to include in-home and in-school settings, and clarifies that the state cannot require recipients to use telehealth services instead of in-person consultations.
