Hägglund, Maria ; Davoody, Nadia ; Kristensson Ekwall, Anna LU and Farrokhnia, Nasim (2023) 33rd Medical Informatics Europe Conference: Caring is Sharing - Exploiting the Value in Data for Health and Innovation, MIE2023 In Studies in Health Technology and Informatics 302. p.942-946
Abstract

The COVID-19 pandemic has significantly increased the use of remote services such as video consultations (VCs). In Sweden, private healthcare providers offering VCs have grown substantially since 2016 and have been controversial. Few studies have focused on physicians' experiences of providing care in this context. Our overall aim was to study physicians' experiences of VCs, here focusing on their suggestions for future improvements. Twenty-two semi-structured interviews were performed with physicians working for an online healthcare provider in Sweden, and analyzed through inductive content analysis. Two themes emerged related to desired future improvements of VCs; blended care and technical innovation.
