UCR 302: Telehealth in 2026 — Current Rules, 2027 Proposals, and the Future of Urology Care
August 28, 2026
In this episode, Scott, Mark, and Dr. Ray Painter review where telehealth stands today and why it is becoming an essential part of the future of urology care. They discuss Medicare’s current rules for audio-visual and audio-only visits through 2027, documentation requirements, place-of-service rules, telehealth for hospitalized patients, and the importance of state licensure. The team also looks ahead to Medicare’s proposed 2027 group medical visit model and explores how telehealth can improve access, increase efficiency, support remote monitoring, and become a true line of business within a urology practice. The key takeaway: telehealth is no longer just a temporary convenience—it is becoming a foundational part of how practices will deliver care.
