Extends pay parity for telemedicine and telehealth services in New Jersey until July 1, 2026.
This bill amends existing law to extend the period during which health benefits plans in New Jersey must provide coverage and payment for health care services delivered through telemedicine or telehealth at the same rate as in-person services. The extension runs from the current end date of December 31, 2024, to December 31, 2025. This change ensures continued equal reimbursement for telemedicine and telehealth services, excluding certain behavioral health services provided via audio-only telephone conversation.
