Statescoop: A bill just signed into law in Indiana is opening up the door for health care providers to start using telemedicine techniques in the state.
Gov. Mike Pence put pen to paper on Rep. Cindy Kirchhofer’s H.B. 1263 last week, reversing a longstanding statute requiring physicians to meet with patients in person before prescribing any medication. The new law gives doctors, physician assistants, advanced practice nurses and optometrists the ability to prescribe a variety of drugs remotely, and also stipulates that Indiana law will apply to any out-of-state providers serving patients in the state.
