Arizona requires out-of-state providers to register before delivering telehealth to Arizona patients

CCHP's Arizona page states that out-of-state providers must register with Arizona's applicable regulatory board, hold a substantially similar unrestricted license elsewhere, and pay fees before providing telehealth, unless they qualify for limited exemptions (emergency care, consultations, or fewer than ten annual encounters). This registration step is an administrative barrier to cross-state telehealth, affecting out-of-state specialists and patients seeking remote care from providers licensed elsewhere.
