Abstract in brief

  • The study explores how an adolescent and young adult clinic rapidly adopted telemedicine during the COVID-19 pandemic, highlighting the challenges of logistics, confidentiality, and maintaining quality care.
  • Telemedicine visits soared from none to 97% of patient encounters in just a month, and despite some limitations, many services like mental health and reproductive care were successfully provided remotely.
  • While telemedicine proved feasible and promising for AYA patients, questions about confidentiality, care quality, health disparities, and the need for clinical guidelines remain areas for further development and research.
