Telemedicine Regulation

Meaning

Telemedicine regulation refers to the comprehensive body of state and federal rules, policies, and statutes that govern the practice of medicine using electronic communication and information technology to deliver clinical care at a distance. This framework encompasses various critical aspects of virtual care, including professional licensing requirements, reimbursement policies, patient data privacy (e.g., HIPAA), and the establishment of a valid patient-physician relationship. Compliance with these regulations is essential for any practice offering remote hormonal health and wellness services.
