The Policy Committee of the North Carolina Medical Board is currently reviewing a draft policy on Telemedicine.  As a result of public comment received at the committee’s last meeting, the Board has updated its proposed draft to eliminate language requiring informed consent.  A copy of the updated draft can be viewed here.

The Policy Committee will review these changes at their next meeting in July.  Should the committee report favorably on this draft, the full Medical Board may also approve this policy during the July meeting.
