Fair Telehealth Billing Act of 2026
The Fair Telehealth Billing Act of 2026 prohibits health care providers and facilities from charging separate facility fees when a provider is authorized to bill independently for telehealth services. This rule, which takes effect on January 1, 2028, is enforced by the Department of Labor, which can impose civil penalties of up to $10,000 for each violation. The legislation aims to simplify billing practices by preventing double charges for the same telehealth visit.
