Department Of Veterans Affairs Proposed Rule: Authority Of Health Care Providers To Practice Telehealth
On October 2, 2017, the Department of Veterans Affairs (VA) released this proposed rule. The VA proposed waiving state physician licensure regulations so that any VA medical professionals can conduct telehealth visits with veterans nationwide. This rule would ensure that VA health care clinical professionals provide the same level of care to all beneficiaries, irrespective of the State or location in a State of the VA health care clinical professional, or the beneficiary.
