New Jersey A1499 codifies telemedicine and telehealth requirements for licensed veterinarians.

New Jersey A1499 codifies existing regulations for veterinarians using telemedicine and telehealth. It mandates that veterinarians establish a relationship with clients and patients before providing services. They must review patient history and records, determine if telemedicine or telehealth can meet in-person care standards, and inform clients of risks and benefits. The bill requires the use of two-way, interactive communication technologies and allows for asynchronous store-and-forward technology under certain conditions.
