AMA survey: Majority of physicians say telehealth enables more comprehensive quality care

As the potential end of the public health emergency looms, the future of telehealth policy has been under increasing scrutiny.  
And even as telehealth use has decreased since its 2020 spike, the AMA survey shows many physicians are still relying on the modality.  
Of those using telehealth, the vast majority – 93% – is conducting live, interactive video visits with patients, with 69% performing audio-only visits. When it comes to challenges, physicians said the digital divide was the biggest barrier to care.
