Decreasing trend in the overall neuropituitary diagnoses at the Halifax Neuropituitary Program. A provincial state of emergency was declared on March 22, 2020, during which all nonemergency health care was transitioned to VHC. We assumed 2019Q1 to 2019Q4 as the pre-VHC period and 2020Q2 to 2021Q1 as the post-VHC period. VHC = virtual health care.
