Insurance: health insurers; reimbursement rate for telehealth visits; modify. Amends sec. 3476 of 1956 PA 218 (MCL 500.3476).

SB 772 requires health insurers in Michigan to reimburse telehealth visits at the same rate as in-person visits, using the same billing codes. It prohibits insurers from mandating face-to-face visits for services that can be safely provided via telemedicine, as determined by the treating healthcare professional. This applies to all health insurance policies covering telehealth services, directly affecting insurers, healthcare providers, and patients using telehealth. The bill ensures telehealth coverage parity without adding new requirements for providers or altering patient cost-sharing (like copays or deductibles). It modifies existing insurance code language to standardize reimbursement practices for telemedicine.
