Can anyone give me more insight on telehealth visits? We are in a rural area, and our patients depend on these types of services.
 
Telehealth extensions will end on September 30, 2025.
Starting October 1, 2025, Medicare telehealth policy will revert to pre-COVID PHE (March 2020) rules, and telehealth services will no longer be reimbursed under the previous flexibilities.
Effective for dates of service on or after 10/01/2025, all appointments must be conducted in person.
Audio-only will no longer be broadly covered, except:
When the patient is in their home AND the distant site provider has the capability to use live video but the patient cannot or does not wish to use it (behavioral services).
Home as the originating site will only remain for:
•  Treatment for a substance use disorder and co-occurring mental health conditions
•  Mental/behavioral health services (if all in-person visit requirements are met)
•  End-stage renal disease (ESRD) home dialysis services
All other telehealth visits must take place at eligible facilities in approved geographic locations.
