The coronavirus disease 2019 (COVID-19) pandemic caused unprecedented challenges in the health care industry across the world. One important challenge is the ability to provide health care access to patients who are on a stay at home order. The use of electronic technology such as telehealth services helped bridge that gap in different settings including interventional radiology.The COVID-19 pandemic has driven many changes including health care delivery rules and regulations. In March 2020, the Coronavirus Aid, Relief, and Economic Security Act was signed to improve health care access via telehealth (Snyder & Kerns, 2020). Telehealth is the use of virtual visit modalities to connect with health professionals to exchange health care information in audio, video, graphic, or other format for the purpose of providing improved health care services (Center for Medicare and Medicaid Services, 2020). The US Department of Health and Human Services Office of Civil Rights published a notification that allows health care providers to use noncompliant remote communication and the Office for Civil Rights (US Department of Health and Human Services Office, 2021) will not penalize for violations of the Health Insurance Portability and Accountability Act. In accordance with the notification, video chat applications that are nonpublic facing can be used for the provision of telehealth services. The provider must use an interactive audio and telecommunication system that permits real time communication between the distant site and patient at home (Center of Medicare and Medicaid Services, 2020).There are four different telehealth modalities that include synchronous, asynchronous, remote patient monitoring, and mobile health (mHealth) (Centers for Disease Control and Prevention, 2020; Frey & Chiu, 2020; Snyder & Kerns, 2020). The synchronous telehealth modality refers to real-time telephone or live audiovisual technology interaction. An interactive audiovisual of face-to-face interaction requires using a virtual platform such as Doximity, Zoom, Blue Jeans, Google Hangout, FaceTime video messaging, or Skype (Frey & Chiu, 2020; Ko et al., 2020). An alternate technique is using only audio via telephone use. In interventional radiology, the synchronous modality is best suitable for consultation and follow-up visits with patients who were referred for embolization treatments such as radioembolization, chemoembolization, uterine fibroid embolization, and prostate arterial embolization. A case-by-case evaluation is to be conducted and triage patients accordingly by acuity.Asynchronous telehealth refers to store-and-forward technology that sends patient's data such as images or messages to a health care provider. An example of asynchronous telehealth is computed tomography scan or magnetic resonance imaging that has been sent electronically from a remote facility to a hospital. Remote patient monitoring refers to the use of technological devices that records patient's clinical measurements from a distance and sends the information to a health care provider at a different location. Mobile health refers to health management of chronic conditions via mobile devices such as smartphones or software applications. Smartwatches come with features such as medical applications that monitor a patient's electrocardiogram for atrial fibrillation. Another example, are software applications on tablets or smartphones that connect to ultrasound probes for diagnostic imaging (Centers for Disease Control and Prevention, 2020; Frey & Chiu, 2020).Telehealth entails planning and allocation of resources to implement a seamless workflow process. The telehealth visit is delivered by the use of a computer with webcam or built-in camera, tablet, or smartphone. In addition, reliable high-speed Internet service is needed. Health care providers need to secure a quiet office area to ensure patient privacy. Health care providers should also anticipate the scheduling of a face-to-face language interpreter for non-English speaking patients during a telehealth visit.A telehealth visit documentation should take place in the patient's electronic medical record. Documentation should include the type of virtual platform being used, the location of patient and provider, the patient's and/or patient's family member's consent (Hamilton, 2020). An example documentation is, “This telehealth visit is conducted by using an audiovisual platform via Zoom due to the restrictions of the COVID-19 pandemic.” All issues in the following were discussed and addressed, but no physical examination was performed unless followed by visual confirmation on Zoom. If it was deemed that the patient should be evaluated in interventional radiology office, then patient was directed to this setting. Patient verbally consented to telehealth visit.”Telehealth has positive advantages that are beneficial to patients and health care professionals. Telehealth provides access to health care on the same day to patients who are isolated, quarantined, or living in a rural setting. In addition, telehealth facilitates a safe environment by complying with social distancing between patients and health care professionals. In addition, it is a convenient modality that reduces the need to travel for patients who have transportation needs or medically incapable of traveling. It is a cost-effective strategy to reduce the use of personal protective equipment in face-to-face interactions (Centers for Disease Control and Prevention, 2020). A prospective interest in telehealth is the expansion of health care access across state lines during a pandemic or time of disaster. In August 2020, the National Council of State Boards of Nursing adopted the Advanced Practice Registered Nurse (APRN) Compact which allows an APRN to hold one multistate license with the privilege to practice in other states. The APRN Compact license will be implemented when 7 states enact the legislation (National Council of State Boards of Nursing, 2020).There are a few barriers and limitations to implementing telehealth in health care. The vulnerable population of the elderly, mentally ill, lower socioeconomic status, lower education level, and individuals who are not proficient in modern technology causes difficulty in the use of telehealth (Frey & Chiu, 2020; Centers of Disease Control and Prevention, 2020). The lack of a comprehensive physical examination during a telehealth visit is considered a barrier (Frey & Chiu, 2020). Although parts of the physical examination are omitted, health care providers use their visual and auditory observations and patients can assist the provider with clinical findings. For example, for the cardiovascular assessment, the provider will ask the patient to take their pulse at the wrist and count the number of beats they feel (Benziger, Huffman, Sweis, & Stone, 2021).In conclusion, telehealth is an innovative technique that improves access to health care for various populations. It maintains patient safety by promoting social distancing to prevent the spread of COVID-19 infections.
