Patient Perspectives on Virtual vs In-Person Posttreatment Care for Brain Metastases
Similar levels of satisfaction with virtual and in-person visits suggest that virtual care is a viable alternative to in-person visits. Higher ratings of personal connection felt with the physician, ability to demonstrate physical problems, and having health concerns properly addressed, within in-person visits, underscore their importance within a health care setting. Additionally, a doctor punctuality and communication skills are the most significant factors affecting visit satisfaction in this population, highlighting key areas for improvement in health care delivery.
