Bill Summary
This bill expressly allows health care providers located outside New Jersey to provide health care services to New Jersey residents using telemedicine and telehealth.

AI Summary
This bill expressly allows healthcare providers located outside of New Jersey to provide healthcare services to patients within New Jersey using telemedicine and telehealth, which are methods of delivering healthcare remotely through technology. Importantly, any out-of-state healthcare provider must still be licensed or certified in New Jersey to offer these services, a requirement that remains unchanged from current law. The bill clarifies that the location of the healthcare provider does not prevent them from offering these remote services to New Jersey patients, as long as they meet all New Jersey licensing and regulatory requirements.
