On September 6, NAMD submitted comments on Medicare’s proposed physician fee schedule for calendar year 2023. The proposed rule includes a policy that would end Medicare coverage of most audio-only telehealth services 151 days after the end of the COVID-19 public health emergency (PHE). While Medicaid has the ability to cover audio-only telehealth, this policy change may have unintended consequences on the Medicaid program, including impacts on provider networks and on members who are dually eligible for Medicare and Medicaid.
