These findings came out of the AMA’s Physician Practice Benchmark Survey.
The report also compares 2024 telehealth use among physicians in practices with different ownership structures and presents novel estimates on the reasons why physician practices are not using telehealth. It also compares the weekly use of telehealth across physician specialties.
