In Short The Situation: Telehealth services continue to evolve and show promise for improving quality care, care coordination, and access to services while often demonstrating cost effective options for care. The Action: The Office of Inspector General ( OIG ) finalized its proposed exception to the Beneficiary Inducements Civil Monetary Penalties Law to protect certain telehealth technologies provided to at-home dialysis patients. The final rule is substantially broader than the proposed exception. Looking Ahead: Although the final rule is limited to beneficiaries with prior existing clinical relationships with donors and technologies provided for the purpose of delivering ESRD telehealth services, there is wide latitude on the types of technologies that are covered by the exception as well as how those technologies are provided and billed. This is likely a nod to the increasing role that telehealth is playing in the context of the COVID-19 pandemic.
