• The Medicare telehealth flexibilities are set to expire on January 30, 2026. Without Congressional action, Medicare coverage for telehealth services will revert to the limited pre-COVID-19 framework.
  • • Pre-COVID-19 Medicare telehealth covered services for beneficiaries located in rural areas, for services provided by limited provider specialties, and at a few originating sites.
    • Returning to this plan, coverage of telehealth services for Medicare beneficiaries is significantly reduced, making telehealth less accessible for many beneficiaries.
• The House has passed legislation that would extend the flexibilities through December 31, 2027, but the bill still needs to pass the Senate and be signed into law.
