Strategies for Everyone to advocate for state government and payer telehealth policy extensions

This course was recorded live on July 6, 2020. Do you want to see telehealth payment flexibility for physical therapists remain in place? YOU can affect telehealth coverage in your state! Join us to learn how to advocate to both government and payers at the state level. As the COVID-19 emergency has shown, payers and governments are willing to be flexible by allowing greater use of telehealth to encourage care continuity for patients. This flexibility is limited, however, as payers and state governments have established telehealth policy deadlines to roll back these policies.

During this webinar, join Ali Schoos, PPS Board member and moderator, Cristina Faucheux, who has led efforts to establish the PPS Key Contact network, Michelle Collie, who has had successful interactions with payers and governments in New England, and Bob Hall, PPS Senior Consultant, to take a deep dive into best practices in your state to prolong access to telehealth with government and private payers.
