Idaho may be the Gem State, but it needs more polish to shine in telemedicine access and availability. There is no private payer parity law in place and there has not been any legislative activity on this front in the last two years. Keep an eye out in the coming years to track progress on Idaho telehealth policy.
Idaho does not currently have a private payer parity law, and hasn’t proposed any legislation for parity in the last several years. However, this doesn’t mean you won’t get paid for telemedicine!
While a telemedicine parity law would require all private payers in the state to reimburse for telemedicine, many payers will still cover it anyway. Check with your payers to see how they cover telehealth services.
