To amend title XVIII of the Social Security Act to expand practitioners eligible to furnish telehealth services under the Medicare program.

This bill proposes to broaden the scope of healthcare professionals authorized to deliver telehealth services to Medicare beneficiaries by amending the Social Security Act. Specifically, it targets Section 1834(m)(4)(E), which outlines the eligibility criteria for practitioners under the Medicare program. The core of the amendment involves a precise linguistic change, replacing the phrase "and," and all that follows through "shall include" with "and includes." This modification aims to make the definition of eligible practitioners more inclusive, thereby expanding the pool of providers who can furnish telehealth services and enhancing access to virtual care for Medicare participants.
