Telehealth vs. In-Person Confusion
 

The document defines “in-person” as physically present and “face-to-face” as in-person or telehealth. This distinction creates billing confusion.

  • Several components allow telehealth “if clinically appropriate,” yet Tier Two rehabilitation skills strictly prohibit telehealth without a clear rationale.

  • This inconsistency risks inequitable access and administrative disputes.
