Indiana HB1061 amends the state's veterinary practice law to allow telehealth services, with an exception for existing relationships.
HB1061 modifies Indiana's veterinary practice law to permit veterinarians to use telehealth for providing health care services. Beginning July 1, 2026, a veterinarian must conduct an initial in-person examination to establish a veterinarian-client-patient relationship. However, if such a relationship was already established by June 30, 2026, the veterinarian may continue to provide services via telehealth without needing another in-person examination. This change aims to balance patient care with the adoption of telehealth technologies.
