Patient experience with in-person and telehealth visits before and during the COVID-19 pandemic at a large integrated health system in the United States.
Researchers sought to compare patient experience by visit type and before and during the pandemic. Using CAHPS® data, they found that patient experience with telehealth visits was as positive as or more positive than that with traditional office-based visits. Doctor communication on telehealth visits was viewed as slightly more positive than that of in-office or telephone visits. Telehealth visits were also slightly more positive than in-office visits for care coordination, overall rating of the doctor, and willingness to recommend to family and friends. Office staff were viewed less positively on the telephone than telehealth or in-office visits. Further, patient experience was similar before and during the COVID-19 pandemic.
