This report compares model telehealth bills and guidelines from the American Medical Association, Uniform Law Commission, and Federation of State Medical Boards. "The model bills and guidelines cover similar pertinent telehealth policy issues brought to light by the COVID-19 pandemic. All three organizations delineate requirements for out-of-state licensure and address, to varying degrees, coverage and payment of telehealth services. The AMA bill is more comprehensive in nature; it includes model language across a broader range of policy areas that are not addressed by the ULC and the FSMB, including considerations related to originating sites and accounting for telehealth within network adequacy standards." The report provides detailed comparative analysis with supporting source language.
