Myl猫ne Arsenault, M.D., and Keith Todd, M.D., Assistant Professors in the Department of Family Medicine, have published a telemedicine study in the journal Family Practice. With the onset of the COVID-19 pandemic, telemedicine was rapidly implemented in care settings globally to ensure continued access to care. Drs Todd, Arsenault and their team sought to better understand what factors affect the successful completion of telemedicine visits in the GMF-U Herzl.
The team reviewed a total of 2,138 telemedicine patient visits and found that only 9.6% were incomplete. Patients presenting with lumps and bumps, those seen by resident physicians and those with no associated relational continuity between patients and physicians had increased odds of incomplete visits. This research not only contributes valuable insights into the dynamics of telemedicine but also underscores the team's commitment to advancing our understanding of healthcare delivery in an evolving landscape.
