At the close of 2024, the US Congress passed a short-term extension of Medicare telehealth flexibilities as part of the American Relief Act, 2025. The Medicare telehealth waivers, originally enacted as part of the COVID-19 public health emergency and subsequently extended through legislation, were set to end on December 31, 2024. These flexibilities, along with the Acute Hospital Care at Home waiver program, are now set to expire March 31, 2025.
