How the pandemic changed families’ views on pediatric telehealth care


Wednesday, October 6th, 2021 | 11:00 AM - 12:00 PM CT

The pandemic has been a stressful and challenging time for busy families, but telehealth emerged as an unexpected bright spot. Many parents discovered well-child video visits and other telehealth services make it easier to access timely pediatric care — especially if they lacked transportation or experienced barriers when seeking in-person care.

A new survey from Nemours Children’s Health System and Amwell shows how families’ experiences with telehealth have shaped their attitudes and behaviors regarding telehealth’s role in pediatric care. In this webinar, experts from Nemours and Amwell will break down the survey findings and discuss the implications for the patient experience and clinical care.

In this webinar, you’ll learn about:
 
  • The virtual care accessed most often by families
  • Telehealth’s effect on parental healthcare responsibilities and family dynamics
  • Telehealth's role in addressing health disparities and social determinants of health
  • How providers can help improve telehealth access
