What does Each State Require concerning Teleradiology?

How licensure affects telemedicine

Advances in technology have opened new doors of opportunity for many medically underserved communities in America. Because of relatively inferior rural access to specialty health care providers, citizens in these communities must often travel great distances to receive care, or forego medical treatment until it becomes urgent. Telemedicine technology increases physicians' capacity to serve these citizens and improves their access to health care. Yet, when medically underserved patients and physicians are located in separate states the issue of practitioner licensure arises. Licensure laws that regulate interstate telemedicine practice vary from state to state.

Categories of telemedicine licensure

Restrictive licensure

Restrictive licensure laws require a practitioner to obtain a full license to deliver telemedicine care across state lines. Typically, states with restrictive licensure laws also have several exceptions (varying from state to state) that may release an out-of-state practitioner from the additional burden of obtaining such a license.

A number of States require practitioners who seek compensation to frequently deliver interstate care to acquire a full license. If a practitioner serves several states, obtaining this license in each state could be an expensive and time-consuming proposition. Even if the practitioner never practices medicine face-to-face with a patient in another state, he/she still must meet a variety of other individual state requirements, including paying substantial licensure fees, passing additional oral and written examinations, and traveling for interviews.
