Editor’s Pick: The value of connecting with other AnCan peers to compare doctor recommendations and treatment experiences. (bj)

Topics Discussed
Management of Benign Prostatic Hyperplasia (BPH) and prostate size; comparison of radiation modalities such as stereotactic body radiation therapy (SBRT), intensity-modulated radiation therapy (IMRT), magnetic resonance-guided linear accelerator (MRI-Linac) and brachytherapy; comparison of androgen deprivation therapy (ADT) medications: Orgovyx vs Lupron; importance of genomic tests like Decipher, Prolaris, Artera AI, and the PROMISE study (germline testing); discussion on surgical options and surgeon recommendations;  advantages of transperineal over transrectal biopsies; benefits of MRI-fusion biopsies for targeted sampling; veterans get medical treatments through Veterans Affairs (VA) can use Community Care to get access to specialized medical care outside the VA; lymph node involvement seen in a PSMA scan changes disease categorization and requires more advanced drugs; importance of consulting a cardio-oncologist when adding ADT treatments for prostate cancer while recovering from heart surgery; discussion between how long a low/intermediate prostate cancer patient can wait between a diagnosis requiring an active treatment (such as prostatectomy, radiation, hormone therapy) and starting active treatment;  the value of connecting with other AnCan peers at similar stages of their journey to compare doctor recommendations and treatment experiences.

Telehealth gets extended through 2027!

Telehealth gets extended through 2027!

Telehealth gets extended through 2027!

As some of you may know, the liberal telehealth rules to conduct medical appointments remotely that were enabled during Covid, sunsetted  late last year. AnCan was upset and vocal that many of our patient advocacy organizations active on The Hill did not campaign more widely to extend it. Organizations like ZERO (prostate cancer) have significant and expensive government relations groups precisely to address such issues on behalf of us patients. AnCan had to bring it to ZERO’s attention to move the ball at a time when ZERO’s high paid CEO was self-admittedly sleeping on the switch.

Telehealth was temporarily extended for those living in rural areas. Then one of our newly minted prostate cancer Moderators, David Sharpe, brought it to AnCan’s attention that legislation was passed on Feb 3, 2026 that has extended comprehensive telehealth through the end of 2027. We asked David to blog its welcome return to wider availability and tell his story around telehealth – thank you Mr. Sharpe!

Medicare Telehealth Coverage Is Extended

The federal government has restored Medicare coverage for telehealth until the end of 2027. That means you can now possibly consult with your doctors online rather than having to meet with them in-person.

Why did I say possibly? Because state medical licensing laws still apply. Often, they can undermine your doctor’s ability to join you on the call. Here’s why: (Don’t construe the following comments as legal or medical advice. This is general information only.)

Telehealth consultations are easiest to arrange when a patient and doctor are in the same state. For instance, if you live in Springfield, Illinois, and want to have a virtual chat with an oncologist in Chicago, no legal impediments are likely to stand in your way.

Things can get tougher if the doctor practices in another state. Physicians are typically required to be licensed in the state where the patient is physically located during the consult. Therein lies a common problem: the doctor is licensed in one state, and you’re in another.

But loopholes exist. According to the Center for Connected Health Policy (CCHP), “A few states have licenses or telehealth-specific exceptions that allow an out-of-state provider to render services via telemedicine in a state where they are not located, or allow a clinician to provide services via telehealth in a state if certain conditions are met (such as agreeing that they will not open an office in that state). Still other states have laws that don’t specifically address telehealth and/or telemedicine licensing, but make allowances for practicing in contiguous states. . . .” For specifics about your state’s rules, explore CCHP’s handy state-by-state guide: https://www.cchpca.org/topic/cross-state-licensing-professional-requirements/.

Despite those exceptions, many physicians and medical centers require patients to be in the same state as the doctor during telehealth appointments. I wish I’d known that last year, before trying to set up virtual consultations from my home in Portland, Oregon, with Fred Hutch (Washington), UCSF, City of Hope (both California), and MD Anderson (Texas0—all of whom turned me down.  Oregon Health & Science University (OHSU, Oregon)) would have refused, too, if I had been in any other state.

But some physicians and hospitals were more relaxed about it. Despite remaining in Portland, I wrangled a telehealth visit with a UCLA specialist. Two AnCan buddies of mine in Oregon and Arizona did so as well. I had even better luck with out-of-state doctors in community practices. Two agreed to confer with me online, and one declined.

If you live near—but not in—the state where your doctor practices, perhaps the easiest option is to make a run for the border. One AnCan member has adopted that strategy as a convenient means of communicating with his faraway medical team in an adjacent state while also satisfying the legal requirements. To have that meeting, he travels a few miles from home to a casino just across the state line; the casino lets him conduct telehealth consultations there. That approach shaves hours off what would otherwise be a protracted road trip to talk with his doctors face-to-face.   # # #
