Summary
Rural Telehealth Expansion Act
This bill expands coverage of telehealth services under Medicare to include store-and-forward technologies (in which information is sent to providers and reviewed at a later time, rather than through a real-time interaction). Currently, coverage is limited to federal demonstration programs in Alaska and Hawaii.
