This new executive order terminates the old executive order. In the same order, he has issued a new state of emergency relative to staff shortages in the state’s healthcare system and the state’s recovery efforts from the COVID-19 public health threat. This new executive order suspends certain statutory and regulatory provisions related to telemedicine.
This new state of emergency executive order is very similar to the one issued at the start of the pandemic and is set to terminate on December 31, 2021 unless extended.
