We hypothesized that telemedicine would be disproportionately underutilized among older adults with MCID or with racial and ethnic minority status.

However, these studies have predominantly included older, non-Black women, and the related socioeconomic status (SES) data is limited. Increased representation and depth of social data are crucial for understanding how health inequity is intertwined with somatic landscapes.
