Medical students remote consulting from home and from the health centre: A survey of prevalence and supervisor perspectives.

Purpose: A shift to remote consulting characterised the early stages of the COVID-19 pandemic in general practice which resulted in significant changes in the delivery of medical education. It is unclear whether these changes have been sustained and how they are perceived by faculty.

Methods: We surveyed a defined population of GP practices during April 2022 with questions to elicit estimates of medical student involvement in different types of remote consultation and supervisor ratings of their confidence in supervising different modalities of remote consultation.
