SB2453 expands telemedicine services to include acupuncture in Illinois.
SB2453 amends the Telehealth Act to include acupuncturists among health care professionals providing telemedicine services. It defines telemedicine for acupuncture as non-needle modalities and consultations via technology. The bill ensures the standard of care remains consistent whether services are provided in person, through telemedicine, or another method. It also mandates the Department of Financial and Professional Regulation to determine appropriate acupuncture services via telemedicine in consultation with the Board of Acupuncture.
