Summary

The inability to access and use smartphones or camera-outfitted internet-connected devices during the COVID-19 pandemic relegates certain patients to receive audio-only telemedicine instead of audio/video-based telemedicine. The investigators are conducting a randomized controlled trial in order to characterize patient and provider attitudes towards these two modalities of care and to test the feasibility of a new model to make tablets for video-based care accessible to those who need that. The investigators hypothesize that patient and provider satisfaction will be higher with video-based telehealth when compared to phone-based telehealth.
