House introduces H.861 on telemedicine parity; H.645 referred to Appropriations
Summary
Presiding officer announced the introduction of House Bill 861 on reimbursement parity for telemedicine and audio-only telephone services and placed House Bill 645 on the notice calendar with referral to the Appropriations Committee for its appropriation content.
The presiding officer opened the House and announced two bills: House Bill 861 was introduced for first reading and described as 'an act relating to reimbursement parity for health care services delivered in person by telemedicine and by audio only telephone.'
House Bill 645, 'an act relating to the expansion of approaches to restorative justice,' was placed on the notice calendar and, because it carries an appropriation, was referred to the committee on appropriations for review.
Both bills were announced on the floor at the start of the session; no floor debate or votes on either bill were recorded in the transcript provided.
