Telemedicine evaluations significantly increased follow-up visits for patients with symptomatic cardiovascular conditions, enhancing care delivery.
Patients with syncope or dizziness saw up to 29.8 additional follow-up visits per 100 patients, while coronary artery disease patients saw a decrease of 29.5 visits.
Observational analysis of 5528 new patient visits across 40 clinicians revealed varied impact based on presenting cardiovascular condition.
Targeting initial telemedicine evaluations more effectively could improve outcomes for symptomatic patients in cardiology practices.
