Waiting times for outpatient visits during military conflict: An observational study

In the midst of a continuing military conflict, there was a notable increase in outpatient visit waiting times in some disciplines, but not all, despite a reduction in the overall volume of visits. Investigating whether similar impacts on patient care occur during other military conflicts or pandemics necessitates further research.

Abstract

In the midst of a continuing military conflict, there was a notable increase in outpatient visit waiting times in some disciplines, but not all, despite a reduction in the overall volume of visits. Investigating whether similar impacts on patient care occur during other military conflicts or pandemics necessitates further research.
