Extends Medicare telehealth services and hospital-at-home care for millions of Americans.
This bill would extend many temporary Medicare rules that make it easier for people to get healthcare services from home. It would keep telehealth options, including mental health services, available for longer and continue the program that allows hospital-level care at home. The bill also includes steps to fight fraud and help people with limited English proficiency use telehealth.
Currently, many temporary Medicare telehealth flexibilities and the "Acute Hospital Care at Home" program are set to expire in late 2025. This bill would extend most of these telehealth options until September 30, 2027, and the hospital-at-home program until 2030. This means millions of Americans would continue to have access to virtual care, including mental health services and hospital-level care at home, for several more years. It would also introduce new measures to fight fraud and improve telehealth access for those with limited English.
