  • Impact of Covid-19 on Trends in Outpatient Clinic Utilization

    Courtney E McCracken, Jennifer C Gander et al.ARTICLEMedical Care2023Referencias: 19

    BACKGROUND: The COVID-19 pandemic forced many US health care organizations to shift from mostly in-person care to a hybrid of virtual visits (VV) and in-person visits (IPV). While there was an expected and immediate shift to virtual care (VC) early in the pandemic, little is known about trends in VC use after restrictions eased. METHODS: This is a retrospective study using data from 3 health care systems. All completed visits from adult primary c…

  • Health-care–Related Practices in Virtual Behavioral Health Treatment for Major Depression Before and During the Covid-19 Pandemic

    Nancy S Weinfield, Heather M Tavel et al.ARTICLEMedical Care2023Referencias: 20

    BACKGROUND: The abrupt shift to virtual care at the onset of the COVID-19 pandemic had the potential to disrupt care practices in virtual behavioral health encounters. We examined changes over time in virtual behavioral health-care-related practices for patient encounters with diagnoses of major depression. METHODS: This retrospective cohort study utilized electronic health record data from 3 integrated health care systems. Inverse probability of…

  • Virtual Care and Urinary Tract Infection Management

    Jennifer C Gander, Glenn K Goodrich et al.ARTICLEMedical Care2023Referencias: 37

    BACKGROUND: During the COVID-19 pandemic, more health care issues were being managed remotely. Urinary tract infections (UTIs) are being managed more often using telehealth although few reports compare the rate of UTI ancillary service orders placed and fulfilled during these visits. OBJECTIVES: We aimed to evaluate and compare the rate of ancillary service orders and order fulfillments in incident UTI diagnoses between virtual and in-person enco…

  • Development of a Common Data Model for a Multisite and Multiyear Study of Virtual Visit Implementation

    Douglas W Roblin, Kevin B Rubenstein et al.ARTICLEMedical Care2023Referencias: 7

    BACKGROUND/OBJECTIVE: In multisite studies, a common data model (CDM) standardizes dataset organization, variable definitions, and variable code structures and can support distributed data processing. We describe the development of a CDM for a study of virtual visit implementation in 3 Kaiser Permanente (KP) regions. METHODS: We conducted several scoping reviews to inform our study's CDM design: (1) virtual visit mode, implementation timing, and …

  • Patient Factors Associated With Use of Adult Primary Care and Virtual Visits During the Covid-19 Pandemic

    Debra P Ritzwoller, Glenn W Goodrich et al.ARTICLEMedical Care2023Referencias: 22

    BACKGROUND: The delivery of adult primary care (APC) shifted from predominately in-person to modes of virtual care during the COVID-19 pandemic. It is unclear how these shifts impacted the likelihood of APC use during the pandemic, or how patient characteristics may be associated with the use of virtual care. METHODS: A retrospective cohort study using person-month level datasets from 3 geographically disparate integrated health care systems was …
