Payment Parity

  

 

Payment Parity: State law requires the same health service to be covered via telehealth if it is covered via in-person services AND the health care provider is reimbursed for the telehealth service with the same payment rate as the in-person service. 

 

Coverage Parity: State law requires the same health service to be covered via telehealth if it is covered via in-person services. The payment rate for the telehealth service may differ from the in-person service.
