ABSTRACT
Background:
Provider discussions about colorectal cancer (CRC) screening are the single most important predictor for CRC screening uptake.Methods:
Using cross-sectional data from the 2022 Health Information National Trends Survey, we evaluated the relationship between telehealth use and provider discussion about CRC screening with a multivariable logistic regression model.Results:
Of adults aged 45-75 years, 20.3% used telehealth services in the past year of which 69.5% had discussed CRC screening with their providers. There was no difference in provider discussion about CRC screening between telehealth users and nonusers (OR 1.26; 95% confidence interval 0.83-1.90).Conclusion:
Telehealth is an important adjunct in health care delivery, enhancing patient-provider discussions about CRC screening.Palabras clave
