Telehealth includes certain medical or health services that you get from your doctor or other health care provider who’s located somewhere else (in the U.S.) using audio and video communications technology (or audio-only services in some cases), like through your phone or a computer.
Starting April 1, 2025, you must be in an office or medical facility located in a rural area (in the U.S.) for most telehealth services. If you aren’t in a rural healthcare setting, you can still get certain Medicare telehealth services on or after April 1, including:
- Monthly End-Stage Renal Disease (ESRD) visits for home dialysis
- Services for diagnosis, evaluation, or treatment of symptoms of an acute stroke wherever you are, including in a mobile stroke unit
- Services for the diagnosis, evaluation, or treatment of a mental and/or behavioral health disorder (including a substance use disorder) in your home
