The COVID-19 pandemic has led to an unprecedented shift in ambulatory cardiovascular care from in-person to remote visits. https://t.co/EYUZaA0UiM #Coronavirus #COVID-19 #ClinicalPharmacy #Pharmacology #Cardiology #HealthDisparities #Cardiology #Teleheal
Amazing insight.
Does that mean more optimized care plans with ‘appropriate utilization’ happened via telemedicine busting common trope?

VERY interesting and with possibly huge FX, if we are looking at retaining even part of the huge increase in telemed visits that we’ve attained since the pandemic began

Common trope: "doctors will order more confirmatory tests for telemedicine visits" but this study found that way less tests were AND way less medications were prescribed via telemedicine Hope they follow this group and look at outcomes https://t.co/lobD

Over a year later, we are still trying to understand the impact of telemedicine on patient care (and how it impacts existing health disparities). Interesting health system study in CV care. @chadellimoottil
