A recent report from the Office of National Drug Control Policy (ONDCP) summarizes the current laws and policies related to telehealth services and the limitations and benefits of its use for individuals with SUD, namely that telehealth provides increased access to vulnerable individuals with SUD, decreases costs, and reduces the spread of communicable diseases. The report also outlines recommendations for Congress, federal agencies, and providers to expand and enhance the use of telehealth services.
