Telehealth Expansion Act of 2025

Bill 119 s 763, also known as the Telehealth Services Exemption Extension Act, is a proposed piece of legislation that aims to make a permanent change to the Internal Revenue Code of 1986. Specifically, the bill seeks to extend the exemption for telehealth services from certain high deductible health plan rules.

Currently, under the Internal Revenue Code, individuals with high deductible health plans are required to pay out-of-pocket for certain telehealth services until they meet their deductible. However, this bill would permanently exempt telehealth services from this requirement, allowing individuals to access these services without having to first meet their deductible.

The goal of this legislation is to promote the use of telehealth services, which have become increasingly popular and important in recent years, especially in light of the COVID-19 pandemic. By permanently extending this exemption, the bill aims to make telehealth services more accessible and affordable for individuals with high deductible health plans. Overall, Bill 119 s 763 is a bipartisan effort to support the use of telehealth services and improve access to healthcare for all individuals, regardless of their insurance coverage.
