The Center for Connected Health Policy’s (CCHP) Fall 2025 Summary Report of the state telehealth laws and Medicaid program policies is now available as well as updated information on our online Policy Finder tool. The most current information in the online tool may be exported for each state into a PDF document. The following is a summary of the current status of telehealth policy in the states (and jurisdictions) given these new updates.
This edition reflects CCHP’s review of states conducted between late May and early September 2025. The executive summary also captures updates made in states since CCHP’s last annual State Telehealth Policy Summary in November 2024 (with review for individual states having concluded at various points before then). CCHP has produced this summary report since 2013. While it was previously released twice a year, it is now published annually each Fall, with three rounds of updates to each jurisdiction in the Policy Finder throughout the year.
CCHP is committed to providing timely policy information that is easy for users to navigate and understand through our Policy Finder. Additionally, CCHP’s Policy Finder now features the reintroduction of the policy category related specifically to federally qualified health centers (FQHCs). CCHP began tracking this important category in the Fall of 2022, but had to pause updates last year when the funding for this work expired. However, thanks to renewed support from the National Association of Community Health Centers (NACHC), we’re once again able to offer this resource.
Read the executive summary
While this Executive Summary provides an overview of findings, it must be stressed that there are nuances in many of the telehealth policies. To fully understand a specific policy and all its intricacies, the full language of it must be read utilizing CCHP’s telehealth Policy Finder.
