FINAL LETTER -- Yesterday hundreds of groups joined us in calling on Congress to extend #telehealth for no less than a full calendar year -citing the significant patient care disruption that would result from anything less.

FYI - Sen Warner statement on DEA proposal.

Interest groups responded cautiously to the rules' release. The Alliance is very concerned to see language in the proposed rulemaking mandating what portion of patient care can be offered through #telemedicine, as this is not an appropriate guardrail for a #telehealth service"

"Extending Medicare’s coverage of telehealth for just three months “has a lot of real-world implications,” says Chris Adamec, executive director @ConnectwCare. “Many health care providers schedule appointments more than 90-days out.”

House votes are expected approximately 6-6:30 PM ET

House is excepted to reconvene and debate the skinny health package at 5:20 PM ET.

A 90 day extension for Medicare telehealth is circulating

Millions of Americans will lose access to #telehealth unless Congress takes action this week. Please join us in calling on Congress to #savetelehealth and share why telehealth access is important to you.

We expect the House and Senate to vote later this week. This bill also boosts Medicare payment by 2.5% in 2025 and the APM bonus by 3.53%.
