Expands the healthcare services provided by telehealth

This bill requires health insurers and government programs to reimburse telehealth services at the same rate and under the same conditions as in-person care, directly affecting telehealth providers and patients accessing remote healthcare. It specifically ensures mental health services delivered via telehealth (under mental hygiene law) are reimbursed at full in-person rates unless a commissioner deems them inappropriate. The bill excludes reimbursement for facility fees or clinic costs not incurred during telehealth visits, as these typically apply to in-person settings. It also notes that new telehealth service types or audio-only calls require federal funding approval. The changes expire 60 days after enactment, aligning with the original law's expiration.
