Acceptability and Access Metrics for Telehealth Consultation of Pediatric Neurodevelopmental Disabilities During COVID-19. | LitMetric

Introduction: We report caregiver agreement to attend telehealth neurodevelopmental consultation during COVID-19, demographic differences in agreement, reasons families declined, and clinical access metrics before and during COVID-19.

Method: Data were gathered from telehealth referrals and consultations from April to July 2020. Schedulers documented agreement status and reasons for the decline. Wait time, lag time, and missed appointment rates were calculated to measure access.

Results: Ninety-one percent agreed to attend telehealth consultation; 55% of those who declined preferred in-person services. There were no demographic differences between those who accepted, declined, or did not respond. The median wait time from referral to appointment was 60 days. Missed appointment rates were consistent with prepandemic rates.

Discussion: Findings support literature suggesting patients are agreeable to telehealth. They diverged from evidence suggesting telehealth reduces missed appointments. Overall, results indicate telehealth is an acceptable alternative; however, further telehealth innovation is needed to address existing disparities.
