(b) Coverage for telehealth services required by subsection (a) may not be subject to a dollar limit, deductible, or coinsurance requirement that is less favorable to a covered individual than the dollar limit, deductible, or coinsurance requirement that applies to the same health care services delivered to a covered individual in person.
(c) Any annual or lifetime dollar limit that applies to telehealth services must be the same annual or lifetime dollar limit that applies in the aggregate to all items and services covered under the policy.

(e) If a policy provides coverage for telehealth services via:
(1) secure videoconferencing;
(2) store and forward technology; or
