Relates to the delivery of telehealth services by veterinarians

This bill permits veterinarians to provide telehealth services under specific conditions, directly affecting veterinarians and pet owners seeking remote care. Key requirements include verifying the veterinarian's identity and license, ensuring privacy compliance, using professional judgment to determine if telehealth is appropriate, and having sufficient knowledge of the animal (via recent in-person exams or electronic records). Veterinarians must obtain client consent before telehealth services, maintain records of consent, and follow the same care standards as in-person visits. The bill defines telehealth as using electronic tools for diagnosis, treatment, and care management - not just email or fax - while clarifying that prescriptions remain subject to existing practice scope rules.
