Characterizing New England emergency departments by telemedicine use.
The primary objective of this study was to describe the prevalence of telemedicine use in New England EDs and the clinical applications of use. It concluded that telemedicine is commonly used in New England EDs. In 2014, use was more common among rural EDs and EDs with limited neurology consultant availability. In contrast, telemedicine use was less common among very low-volume EDs.
