Lets people get heart and lung rehab at home through telehealth permanently
This bill would permanently allow people to receive heart and lung rehabilitation services in their own homes using telehealth. This means patients would no longer need to travel to a clinic for these services, and doctors could supervise virtually. It aims to make care more accessible, especially for those who faced barriers before.
Today, Medicare rules generally do not permanently allow heart and lung rehabilitation services to be provided in a patient's home via telehealth, and often require in-person supervision. After this bill, these services would be permanently available in a patient's home through telehealth, with virtual supervision allowed, and certain geographic restrictions for these specific telehealth services would be removed.
