General Information
Telehealth services require use of an interactive audio and video telecommunications system that permits real-time communication between the provider at the distant site and the Medicare beneficiary at the originating site.
Medicare pays for a limited number of Part B services furnished by a physician or practitioner to an eligible beneficiary via a telecommunications system. For eligible telehealth services, the use of a telecommunications system substitutes for an in-person encounter.
