COVID-19 Out-of-State Telehealth Registration
On May 6, 2021, Governor Tim Walz signed Emergency Executive Order 21-21 rescinding Executive Orders 20-23, 20-28, and 20-101 effective May 28, 2021. Normal Board licensure and regulation processes will resume on May 28, 2021. As of May 6, 2021, out-of-state telehealth registration applications will no longer be processed.
In this transition, it is important to note that Minnesota law (Minnesota Statutes section 148B.592, subdivision 5) related to professional counselors allows nonresident providers to provide services to Minnesota clients for up to 30 calendar days in a year (days do not have to be consecutive).
