Sidecar: Two-Year Telehealth Runway to 2027: Three Actionable Moves for Healthcare Investors

April 1, 2026 — The U.S. Congress has extended Medicare telehealth coverage through 2027, changing the calculus for telehealth deals in several concrete ways. In this Sidecar, PE and Healthcare Transactional Practice co-head Markus Bolsinger, Healthcare Transactional Practice co-head Jennifer Hutchens and associate Brooke Meadowcroft discuss the principles that will help investors act on the opportunities brought by this increased deal window while also building strategies to outlast any single policy.

Key Takeaways:

Timing is Everything: A landmark federal extension of U.S. Medicare telehealth coverage has opened an almost two-year window through 2027. We break down why savvy investors are already moving on it, what every sponsor in this space needs to be thinking about before it closes, and why it matters well beyond Medicare itself. As the nation's largest payer, where Medicare goes, commercial insurers tend to follow.
Look Beyond the Surface: The Medicare telehealth revenue opportunity is real, but so are the risks hiding underneath it. We break down what separates a great deal from a costly mistake in today's U.S. digital health market, from reimbursement concentration to an active government enforcement environment, and how much scrutiny it actually takes to tell the difference.
Durability Wins: Not every company riding the Medicare telehealth tailwind is built to last. We break down what separates the businesses worth backing for the long term from those simply in the right place at the right time, and why smart deal structuring is what protects returns when the next coverage debate arrives.
