Relating to prohibited facility fees for telehealth and telemedicine medical services; providing an administrative penalty.

HB 2631 prohibits health care providers - including hospitals, clinics, and urgent care centers - from charging separate "facility fees" for telehealth or telemedicine services. A facility fee is defined as a charge covering operational costs, distinct from fees for the medical service itself. The bill requires providers to stop adding these separate fees for virtual care visits, directly affecting how telehealth services are billed. Violations could result in administrative penalties of up to $1,000 assessed by the Health and Human Services Commission.
