Bill information
Summary
A bill to amend the Controlled Substances Act to allow for the use of telehealth in substance use disorder treatment, and for other purposes.
Plain-language summary
The TREATS Act would change federal drug laws to permit telehealth—remote medical visits by video or phone—for treating substance use disorder. Substance use disorder is addiction to drugs or alcohol. Currently, federal law restricts remote prescribing of controlled substances like medications used in addiction treatment. This bill would expand those permissions for addiction therapy specifically. The bill has bipartisan sponsorship and was recently introduced in Congress.
