Congress passed H.R.6074 – Coronavirus Preparedness and Response Supplemental Appropriations Act. This new law extends payment for telehealth visits furnished in emergency areas during emergency periods. This all relates to a declaration by Secretary of HHS that coronavirus meets this definition. This payment is funded through 9/30/2020. Below is additional information and resources to help you navigate what this means for your organization.

What are our clients saying?
Allscripts was very responsive to our needs to quickly roll out telehealth at our organization, in light of the COVID-19 pandemic. This was a quick install and has been easily rolled out to our ambulatory providers as well as several of our acute outpatient service areas. This has been a welcomed transition for many of our patients that are diligently practicing social distancing.
