Telehealth has expanded rapidly during the pandemic, and is likely here to stay. Before the pandemic, Medicare was limited to beneficiaries living in rural areas only, with many restrictions on where you could receive services and by whom. In early 2020, however, Congress and the Centers for Medicare & Medicaid Services (CMS) expanded coverage to make it easier to use Telehealth services. Hopefully this will remain intact. Under current rules, the expanded Telehealth coverage is set to expire once the pandemic is over.
