The Veterinary Telemedicine for Livestock Care Act establishes a framework for the use of telemedicine in veterinary care for livestock in Oklahoma. The Act defines key terms such as "livestock," "telemedicine," and "veterinarian-client-patient relationship (VCPR)." It allows licensed veterinarians to utilize telemedicine to evaluate and diagnose livestock when in-person examinations are not feasible, provided certain conditions are met, including the need for timely veterinary attention and sufficient information obtained through electronic communication. The Act also stipulates that telemedicine cannot replace annual health inspections or vaccinations unless approved by the State Board of Veterinary Medical Examiners.

Additionally, the Act empowers the State Board of Veterinary Medical Examiners to create rules and regulations regarding the appropriate use of telemedicine in livestock care, including standards for recordkeeping, confidentiality, and training for veterinarians. It also sets limitations on prescribing medications through telemedicine without an established VCPR or in-person examination, except in emergency situations. The Act is declared an emergency measure, taking effect immediately upon passage and approval.
