Barriers to telemedicine use: qualitative analysis of provider perspectives during the COVID-19 pandemic.
The objective of this study was to describe perceived barriers and facilitators to the use of web-based visits to inform quality improvement efforts and promote sustainability. Medical providers at a large, midwestern academic institution were surveyed. Four overarching categories of provider experience with web-based visits emerged: quality of care, patient rapport, visit flow, and equity. The authors concluded that their findings demonstrated key barriers to the maintenance of telemedicine services following the COVID pandemic, and that these findings might help to prioritize impactful methods of sustaining and expanding telemedicine availability for patients.
