Parent preferences for communicating with their adolescent's provider using new technologies.
The researchers assessed the views of parents of adolescents on various means to communicate with their adolescents’ physicians about vaccine reminders and appointments, medication refills and test results including phone, mail, e-mail, text messages, and personal health records (PHR). They found that young parents of adolescents are most likely to accept text message vaccine reminders; suburban parents prefer e-mail reminders. Personal health records are accepted generally by those parents who are younger and suburban.
