Medi-Cal’s telehealth coverage began in 1996 with the passage of the California Telemedicine Advancement Act (SB 1665), which established telemedicine payment and provision of care requirements, and additional legislation continued to expand access to services through the 2000s. The passage of the Telehealth Advancement Act (AB 415) in 2011 laid the foundation for Medi-Cal to drastically expand coverage of telehealth in Medi-Cal, eliminating the ban on email and telephone-delivered services, permitting patients to verbally consent to telehealth, and enabling all California-licensed and Medi-Cal enrolled providers to practice via telehealth.
