Abstrakt: Experience Differences by Visit Mode For most items, patients reported significantly better experiences for in-person visits than with video or telephone visits (Table 1). In conclusion, patients may be most amenable to primary care telehealth visits for behavioral health and follow-up visits post hospitalization/ED, if the visits are video visits. To improve patient and clinician safety during the COVID-19 pandemic, primary care practices shifted from in-person to telehealth visits (telephone and video) beginning in March 2020.[1] As practices seek to re-balance their mix of in-person and telehealth visits, they might benefit from empirical evidence about which reasons for visits produce the best patient experiences for in-person vs telehealth modalities.[2],[3] This study aims to provide information about adult patient experiences of, and satisfaction with, in-person, video, and telephone visits in primary care.
