Inhibiting and Promoting Factors for the Use of Video Consultations Among Individuals Covered by Statutory Health Insurance in German Outpatient Care: Cross-Sectional Study

Inhibiting and Promoting Factors for the Use of Video Consultations Among Individuals Covered by Statutory Health Insurance in German Outpatient Care: Cross-Sectional Study

The most common applications of telemedicine in outpatient care were video consultations (VC) and telephone calls [3]. Before the COVID-19 pandemic, VC were hardly used in Germany [4]. However, with the decrease in reimbursement restrictions as well as the removal of usage field limitations that accompanied the onset of the COVID-19 pandemic, within one quarter, usage increased 6-fold to over 1 million VC in the second quarter of 2020 compared with the first quarter of 2020 [5].

A Digital Outpatient Service With a Mobile App for Tailored Care and Health Literacy in Adults With Long-Term Health Service Needs: Multicenter Nonrandomized Controlled Trial

A Digital Outpatient Service With a Mobile App for Tailored Care and Health Literacy in Adults With Long-Term Health Service Needs: Multicenter Nonrandomized Controlled Trial

In summary, studies exploring the implementation and impacts of digital health solutions in outpatient care are warranted. The objective of this study was to evaluate whether digital outpatient care for 6 months resulted in improved health literacy, health-related quality of life (HRQo L), digital/e Health literacy, and the use of health care services compared with usual care.

Evaluating Clinical Outcomes and Physician Adoption of Telemedicine for Chronic Disease Management: Population-Based Retrospective Cohort Study

Evaluating Clinical Outcomes and Physician Adoption of Telemedicine for Chronic Disease Management: Population-Based Retrospective Cohort Study

Outpatient consultation or remote ambulatory care is one of the fields of greatest use [4]. Chronic disease management via telemedicine has become significant in various fields such as cardiology, endocrinology, rheumatology, nephrology, and other areas where longitudinal metrics of patient data are essential for evaluating trends in quality measures (eg, hemoglobin A1c [Hb A1c] and serum creatinine) [2].

Digital Assessment of Cognitive Health in Outpatient Primary Care: Usability Study

Digital Assessment of Cognitive Health in Outpatient Primary Care: Usability Study

The objective of this study was to evaluate the feasibility and impact of screening for cognitive impairment in an outpatient, primary care setting using the Linus Health CCE. Participants for this study were recruited from the Benedict Adult Primary Care Clinic at UMass Memorial Medical Center. Eligible patients were identified through a list of upcoming visits generated from the electronic health record system (Epic Systems).

The Effectiveness of Digital Animation–Based Multistage Education for Patients With Atrial Fibrillation Catheter Ablation: Randomized Clinical Trial

The Effectiveness of Digital Animation–Based Multistage Education for Patients With Atrial Fibrillation Catheter Ablation: Randomized Clinical Trial

However, in clinical practice, most patient education was conducted as a single event during outpatient or inpatient visits [30,31]. Regular and repeated education helps improve patient knowledge of the disease over time. Studies have demonstrated that the relevant knowledge acquired by patients with AF significantly declines 2 weeks after receiving education, while multiple educational sessions help enhance patients’ awareness of the disease [14,39,40].

Insights and Trends in Open Note Access: Retrospective Observational Study

Insights and Trends in Open Note Access: Retrospective Observational Study

For this study, we decided to focus on the outpatient rather than the inpatient setting due to differences in motivation for accessing notes in each setting. For example, there is a greater emphasis on self-care in the outpatient setting, which may motivate patients to obtain a deeper understanding of their treatment plan via a medical note, as opposed to the hospital where health care interactions are continuous.

mHealth Apps in German Outpatient Mental Health Care: Protocol for a Mixed Methods Approach

mHealth Apps in German Outpatient Mental Health Care: Protocol for a Mixed Methods Approach

Moreover, m Health apps can be used to support outpatient treatment and be integrated into relevant processes [8]. Since the Digital Act (Digitale-Versorgungs-Gesetz) in 2019, health care providers in Germany have been able to prescribe reimbursable digital health applications (Digitale Gesundheitsanwendungen or Di GA in German) also known as “apps on prescription.”

Effects of a Digital Therapeutic Adjunct to Eating Disorder Treatment on Health Care Service Utilization and Clinical Outcomes: Retrospective Observational Study Using Electronic Health Records

Effects of a Digital Therapeutic Adjunct to Eating Disorder Treatment on Health Care Service Utilization and Clinical Outcomes: Retrospective Observational Study Using Electronic Health Records

Consequently, the focus of this study is to assess the effects of incorporating an AAT that offers a remote patient engagement system in outpatient and intensive outpatient ED treatment settings. The AAT includes TAU plus a CBT-based mobile app that delivers therapeutic self-monitoring tasks and just-in-time therapeutic interventions to patients multiple times per day, which are tied to diagnosis-specific treatment goals.

Completion Rate and Satisfaction With Online Computer-Assisted History Taking Questionnaires in Orthopedics: Multicenter Implementation Report

The CAHT questionnaire aimed to collect the patients’ medical condition, in preparation for their first outpatient consultation. The questionnaire included several topics in the following order: affected joint, previous diagnoses or treatments, health status, personal care needs or preferences, and patient characteristics (Table 1). Some questions were generic, but most were joint-specific.
