Congress has previously extended the Medicare fee-for-service telehealth flexibilities that were originally implemented during the COVID-19 public health emergency in 2020 multiple times, with the latest extension expiring September 30, 2025. While there is broad bipartisan support for these flexibilities, Congress has included the short-term extensions in government funding legislation. Because Congress did not reach an agreement on government funding prior to the expiration of these flexibilities, as of October 1, 2025, the Medicare telehealth flexibilities revert to pre-pandemic limitations.
