## Bill overview: provisions PRIA read

- Telehealth care from compact providers: benefit, medium. You can get audiology or speech therapy by telehealth from a compact-eligible provider. The state where you are during the visit counts as the place of practice. The provider must follow that state's practice laws.

The privilege has the same legal status as a Nevada license unless a law says otherwise. Your home-state license authorizes you to practice in…
