The New Jersey Assembly on Thursday gave final legislative approval to a bill that would impose rules and regulations on the growing practice of “telemedicine,” where patients remotely receive medical evaluations or counseling from health care providers.
The bill—S-291, sponsored by six lawmakers led by Assemblywoman Pamela Lampitt, D-Camden—passed in a 73-0 vote. The bill was amended to mirror the Assembly version, A-1464, earlier in the day in another unanimous vote. The bill now goes to Gov. Chris Christie.
