All Medicare beneficiaries will continue to have access to most telehealth services until September 30, 2025. The pandemic era program set to shrink on March 31 was extended in the Full-Year Continuing Appropriations and Extensions Act (H.R.1968), signed into law on March 15, 2025. This was the second reprieve for the program. It was previously extended in The American Relief Act (H.R. 10545) passed to fund the government and avoid another shutdown.

So, whether you are worried about picking up a cold in your doctor's waiting room or plan on traveling as soon as the weather turns warmer , you can still use the telehealth option to take care of many of your health needs.
