Medicare telehealth services extended until September 2025

fool.com

Medicare's telehealth services will continue without geographic restrictions until September 30, 2025, following a recent government extension. This allows beneficiaries to access telehealth from home, a benefit that was set to be limited in January. After September, telehealth will still cover behavioral and mental health treatments without geographic limits. However, beneficiaries will need to schedule in-person visits within six months of their initial telehealth appointment. Future changes to telehealth access remain uncertain. If restrictions are imposed later in 2025, beneficiaries may need to weigh the costs of in-person visits against telehealth options.
