Patient and clinician experience with a rapidly implemented large-scale video consultation program during COVID-19

Galia Barkai et al.

Summary: The study shows that patients had high levels of satisfaction with outpatient clinic video consultations during the COVID-19 pandemic, while clinicians had lower levels of satisfaction, mostly due to technical and administrative challenges related to the newly implemented telemedicine platform. The results support the continued use of video consultations as a means of providing patient-centered care in the future, and emphasize the need to continuously improve the clinical and administrative application of telemedicine services.

Accelerating Implementation of Virtual Care in an Integrated Health Care System: Future Research and Operations Priorities

Allison A. Lewinski et al.

Summary: Virtual care is crucial for VHA's effort in expanding veterans' access to care, and research on refining virtual care delivery models is needed. A Think Tank convened in December 2019 to address challenges in virtual care research and practice, discuss novel approaches, and develop priorities to enhance virtual care in VHA. The Think Tank identified four key priorities: scaling evidence-based practices, centralizing virtual care, creating high-value care within VHA with virtual care, and identifying appropriate patients for virtual care.

Rapid versus traditional qualitative analysis using the Consolidated Framework for Implementation Research (CFIR)

Andrea L. Nevedal et al.

Summary: The study compared a traditional deductive CFIR analysis approach with a new rapid deductive CFIR approach. The rapid deductive approach was found to be less time intensive and eliminated transcription costs, while still effective in meeting evaluation objectives and establishing rigor. Researchers should consider team expertise, level of detail needed, data mode, and advantages/disadvantages of using the CFIR when employing this approach.
