## Resource

Robin Clough, a cancer survivor, is locked in a legal battle to keep her life-saving telemedicine care with her out-of-state doctor—despite California’s laws shutting the door on post-remission remote visits. As medical expertise grows more specialized and geographically scattered, patients from all walks of life—from college students to clinical trial participants—are running into the same roadblocks. A proposed bill, SB 1020, aimed to fix this by letting remission patients stay connected to their trusted specialists via telehealth, but it died in the Assembly amid licensing fears. Advocates are now pushing legal and regulatory workarounds, arguing that forcing patients to travel for routine care is outdated, costly, and ignores the reality that top medical knowledge—and telehealth tech—know no state lines.
