S.1629

Allows health care professionals outside New Jersey to provide telemedicine and telehealth services to New Jersey residents.

This bill allows health care professionals located outside New Jersey to provide services to New Jersey residents using telemedicine and telehealth. The health care provider must still be licensed or certified in New Jersey. The bill mandates that telemedicine services use interactive, real-time, two-way communication technologies. It also requires health care providers to review the patient's medical history and records before initiating contact and to maintain complete records of patient care.
