Clinical Professional Counseling - Out-of-State Providers - Use of Telehealth for Continuity of Care
Approved by the Governor - Chapter 242
Summary
The bill removes the State Board of Professional Counselors and Therapists' ability to issue temporary telehealth licenses. It also creates an exemption so counselors licensed in another state can provide telehealth counseling to Maryland clients they already serve, but only for a limited continuity‑of‑care period. This change aims to simplify cross‑state telehealth while ending a special licensing pathway.
