Summary

The bill lets a licensed health‑care provider who has a valid relationship with a patient prescribe Schedule II drugs using video, phone or store‑and‑forward technology. Patients must be told if the provider is not a physician and can ask for a physician instead. The same rules that apply to face‑to‑face care also apply to these remote prescriptions.
