HPSO statement from the FAQs on their website:
Am I covered for Telehealth/Telemedicine?
If you are considering providing your professional services via tele-health, please know that the professional liability coverage, issued by HPSO, does not have a limitation as to how professional services are provided (in person or via technology). Rather, the policy requires that you are appropriately licensed to provide professional services and that you comply with state, federal and facility guidelines relative to scope of practice and practice setting.
