Usability problems in the interaction between patients and telemedicine platforms has been recognized as a deterrent in the public's acceptance and use of this alternative healthcare delivery method. Therefore, evaluating the usability of telemedicine provider websites, with a focus on potential patients' first interaction with telemedicine, is a critical research inquiry.

The usability of telemedicine provider websites is an essential component of increasing the public's awareness of, understanding of, and safe and effective use of telemedicine. A newly developed usability data collection tool was used to conduct a usability assessment of the Teladoc website pre- and post- a redesign.
