The bill, as I understand it, temporarily allows telemedicine to be billed via government programs, whereas prior to this ‘war’, it was not possible. After the ‘war’ is over, telemedicine will not be covered by such programs. Additionally, for a doctor to practice in a particular state, the medical board of that state grants and revoked licenses, restricting the practice of medicine to only doctors licensed in the state or states. The bill also temporarily waives that, to allow for telemedicine to be conducted across states, but only temporarily.
