Talk Title: The Telemedicine Use and Access to Health Care during the COVID-19 Pandemic

Abstract: Using population-level data of 16.7M commercially insured individuals in the US, we examine 1) trends in telemedicine use, 2) variation in telemedicine use by clinical specialty, diagnosis, and patient characteristics, and 3) community factors driving telemedicine use. This analysis uses the machine learning procedure of targeted maximum likelihood estimation.
