Missed scheduled clinic appointments (ie, no-shows) are more common among uninsured patients from racial and ethnic minority groups living in economically disadvantaged areas and contribute to poorer health outcomes. [1][2][3] In the pediatric population, the implications of telemedicine for no-show rates have not been adequately explored despite the widespread adoption of telemedicine during the COVID-19 pandemic. The aim of this study was to ascertain whether patient race and ethnicity and level of socioeconomic disadvantage were associated with noshow rates for in-person and telemedicine clinic visits.
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
