Are You Having Issues Getting Medicare Advantage Telehealth Services Covered?

Click to Enlarge

MSSNY has fought for state and federal laws that have helped to ensure that NYS insurance and Medicare plans cover telehealth provided services at the same rate as in-person services and is advocating that the upcoming federal Budget resolution continues to provide Medicare coverage for telehealth delivered services. It should be noted that these laws do not apply to self-insured plans.

MSSNY is hearing from physician members that they are having issues getting Medicare Advantage telemedicine services paid. We are monitoring the situation and will provide an update in next week’s Pulse.

If you are having issues getting telehealth services paid, please reach out to Heather Lopez.
