Telehealth reform post-public health emergency: crucial next steps.
Article in Proceedings (Baylor University. Medical Center), 2023. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 2 papers.
What it found
Each row is one number read from the abstract, on the scale the paper reported it, with its interval. Left of the dashed line favours the treatment, right favours the comparator. Under each row is the sentence it came from. New to these charts? A ten-minute tutorial.
The abstract states no effect estimate the extractor could read, or names no intervention and outcome on the map, so this paper lights no cell and moves no belief. It is still indexed, cited and linked below.
The trial behind it
Trials whose registry record cites this paper, or whose number appears in the abstract. A trial that started after this paper was published is citing it as background, not reporting it.
Neither the registry nor the abstract names a trial number. If this is a trial report, that itself is worth knowing.

Abstract
As the pandemic made it unsafe for providers and patients to meet in person, the US government implemented key temporary telehealth waivers in March 2020 that expanded Medicare telehealth coverage dramatically. Some of the most significant changes included the removal of location restrictions so that patients and providers could engage in telehealth from their homes, full provider reimbursement for telehealth visits, coverage for more medical specialties and types of practitioners such as occupational and physical therapists, and the allowance of telehealth prescription of controlled substances. The waivers will end when the government removes the federal status of a public health emergency, which is expected to occur in 2023. Nearly 64 million Medicare patients are at risk of losing most modalities of telehealth access. We present current legislation that could combat this "telehealth cliff" and defend the position that Medicare telehealth access should remain permanently expanded.
