Telemedicine in community shelters: possibilities to improve chronic care among people experiencing homelessness in Hungary.

Background: Digital health has expanded during the COVID-19 pandemic, while the exclusion of vulnerable populations with limited access to these technologies widens the gap to receive proper care. There is very little data available on the feasibility of telemedicine solutions regarding the chronic care of homeless persons.

Methods: In our study, 75 participants experiencing homelessness were recruited from four social institutions in Budapest, Hungary.
