A Multimodal Telehealth Strategy to Improve Pediatric Epilepsy Care

Madeline H Niemann et al. Pediatr Clin North Am. 2020 Aug.

Abstract

A team of providers, researchers, patients, and families created a novel telehealth tool to improve communication across a variety of systems involved in pediatric epilepsy care. This tool facilitates in-home telemedicine appointments and saves costs for patients and hospital systems alike within the context of a population highly affected by health care disparities.
