RESUMO

Introduction: The objective of this study was to understand whether use of audio-only telemedicine visits differed by individual- and neighborhood-level patient characteristics during the COVID-19 pandemic. Methods: We conducted a retrospective cross-sectional study of telemedicine encounter data from a large academic health system. The primary outcome was rate of audio-only versus video visits. The exposures of interest were individual- (age, race, insurance, preferred language) and neighborhood-level (Social Deprivation Index [SDI]) patient characteristics. Results: Our study included 1,054,465 patient encounters from January 1, 2020 to December 31, 2021, of which 18.33% were completed via audio-only. Encounters among adults 75 years or older, Black patients, Spanish-speakers, and those with public insurance were more frequently conducted by audio-only (p < 0.001). Overall, populations showed decreasing rates of audio-only visits over time. We also observed an increase in the rate of audio-only encounters as SDI scores increased. Discussion: We found that audio-only disparities exist in telemedicine utilization by individual and zip code level characteristics. Though these disparities have improved over time as seen by our temporal analysis, marginalized and minority groups still showed the lowest rates of video utilization. In conclusion, access to audio-only care is a critical component to ensure that telemedicine is accessible to all populations. State and federal policy should support continued reimbursement of audio-only care to ensure equitable access to care while the implications of different care modalities are further studied.

RESUMO

OBJECTIVES: To determine the desirability of integrating financial services in pediatric primary care among caregivers and older adolescents. STUDY DESIGN: We conducted a cross-sectional study among caregivers and late adolescents 18 years and older attending an urban, pediatric primary care clinic. RESULTS: The 221 participants had a mean age of 32.1 years, with 28% of the sample aged 18-25 years. The majority were African American (90.1%), female (83.3%), and single parents (55.1%). More than one-third of the participants (35.8%) reported no household earned income, and 26.7% had a yearly household total income of <$12,000. More than one-half (61.5%) reported financial stress in general, and 67.9% believed that the clinic should provide financial services, including financial education and job workshops. A greater proportion of those who desired clinic-based services were African American (94.7% vs 75%; P < .001) and had a low or middle subjective social status (95.7% vs 83.7%; P = .01). CONCLUSIONS: Clinic-based financial services are desired by caregivers and late adolescents in an urban pediatric primary care practice. Prospective studies are needed to assess the long-term impact of integrated services on childhood poverty and family well-being.

RESUMO

Here, we present an update on the Genome-Wide Repository of Associations between SNPs and Phenotypes (GRASP) database version 2.0 (http://apps.nhlbi.nih.gov/Grasp/Overview.aspx). GRASP is a centralized repository of publically available genome-wide association study (GWAS) results. GRASP v2.0 contains ∼ 8.87 million SNP associations reported in 2082 studies, an increase of ∼ 2.59 million SNP associations (41.4% increase) and 693 studies (48.9% increase) from our previous version. Our goal in developing and maintaining GRASP is to provide a user-friendly means for diverse sets of researchers to query reported SNP associations (P ≤ 0.05) with human traits, including methylation and expression quantitative trait loci (QTL) studies. Therefore, in addition to making the full database available for download, we developed a user-friendly web interface that allows for direct querying of GRASP. We provide details on the use of this web interface and what information may be gleaned from using this interactive option. Additionally, we describe potential uses of GRASP and how the scientific community may benefit from the convenient availability of all SNP association results from GWAS (P ≤ 0.05). We plan to continue updating GRASP with newly published GWAS and increased annotation depth.
