Backslide or forward progress? Virtual care at U.S. healthcare systems beyond the COVID-19 pandemic

NPJ Digit Med. 2021 Jan 8;4(1):6. doi: 10.1038/s41746-020-00379-z.

Abstract

The COVID-19 pandemic forced most U.S. healthcare systems to quickly pivot to virtual care. However, since peaking in late April, care has largely shifted back to in-person. Health systems are now challenged to further develop and integrate useful, usable, and sustainable virtual care tools into their broader care model in ways that benefit their organizations and the communities they serve.
