Shannon MacDonald, M.D., et al. v. Otto Sabando
Cancer doctors and patients fight for right to telehealth
Violating New Jersey’s telehealth restriction is punishable by criminal charges and hefty fines and can put the doctor’s medical license at risk. New Jersey’s telehealth restrictions are not just wrong, they’re also unconstitutional. Placing undue burdens on both out-of-state physicians and New Jersey patients that far outweigh any benefits violates the Constitution’s Dormant Commerce Clause and Privileges and Immunities Clause. Also, just as physicians have a First Amendment right to speak with potential and existing patients via telehealth, physicians and their patients have the right to receive information from each other. The government cannot use licensing requirements to impede the exchange of information between patients and their doctors.
