ABSTRACT

Introduction: During the COVID-19 public health emergency, telehealth use grew due to regulatory and reimbursement surrounding the use of video and audio-only visits for the evaluation and management of patients. Methods: We retrospectively reviewed patients seeking outpatient urological care from April 1, 2020 to June 30, 2020 at a urological tertiary care center. Our study was designed to determine the relative effect of demographic, socioeconomic and geographic variables on the likelihood of using video compared to an audio-only telehealth. Results: We identified 4,744 unique patients who had a urological telehealth visit. Demographic factors associated with lower probability of utilizing video telehealth were older age (ages >65 years, average marginal effect [AME] -38.3, 95% CI -40.8, -34.7), Black/African American race and American Indian and Alaska Native race (AME -9.7, 95% CI -10.7, -7.1; AME -17.1, 95% CI -18.8, -13.7, respectively), interpreter use (AME -4.5, 95% CI -5, -3.1), Medicaid insurance (AME -13.3, 95% CI -14.8, -9.8), rural residence and living in area with low broadband Internet access (AME -12.8, 95% CI -14.1, -9.1). Conclusions: Forty-four percent of patients used audio-only visits to connect with their urologists. Age, ethnicity, rurality, type of insurance and broadband access all impacted the type of telehealth used to receive urological care. Without coverage and reimbursement of audio-only visits, video telehealth could exacerbate health disparities in access to urological care.

ABSTRACT

This commentary follows up on Maduakolam et al. (2020) "Beyond Diversity: Envisioning Inclusion in Medical Education Research and Practice," which introduced Culturally Responsive Universal Design for Learning (CRUDL) as an approach to accounting for learner diversity in educational theory development and curriculum design. We flesh out the principles of CRUDL, using publications in this issue of Teaching and Learning in Medicine as case examples for how the principles work in action. With this scholarly thought exercise, we seek to demonstrate the feasibility and promise of curriculum that is accountable to diverse learners and the impact of historical trauma. We also explore how research inclusive of diverse social identities could inform curriculum design by identifying how social identity, learning environment, educational activities, and learner engagement interact to produce diverse learning experiences and performance. Scholarly thought exercises such as this one may help bridge the gap between professed ideals and action with respect to inclusive medical education; CRUDL principles provide a helpful framework for planning and evaluating accountable curriculum design.
