AI Summary
This bill extends certain pay parity regarding telemedicine and telehealth for one year. Specifically, it amends a previous law to extend the requirement that health benefits plans in New Jersey provide coverage and payment for healthcare services delivered through telemedicine or telehealth at the same reimbursement rate as in-person services, until December 31, 2024. The bill includes exceptions for certain types of services, such as those provided by telemedicine/telehealth organizations that do not offer in-person services in New Jersey, and physical healthcare services provided through audio-only telephone calls. The bill also defines key terms like "carrier," "covered person," and "health benefits plan" for the purposes of this legislation.
