1 · What the graph read from it

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.

2 · The registry

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

Telehealth can promote access to health care, especially among individuals enrolled in Medicaid. However, we currently lack data on patient experiences of telehealth from low-income individuals. Using data collected in 2021 and 2022 from a statewide survey of enrollees in the Heathy Michigan Plan, Michigan's Medicaid expansion program, we conducted an analysis to study patients' experiences of using telehealth. Approximately one-third of enrollees reported a telehealth visit within the past year. Individuals reporting barriers to primary care were more likely to have had a telehealth visit compared with those reporting no barriers to primary care. Among those who had a telehealth visit, most individuals reported that telehealth provided care they could not or would not otherwise receive (63.3%; 95% CI: 58.9%-67.5%) and were satisfied with telehealth adequately addressing their health concerns (92.1%; 95% CI: 89.4%-94.1%). Our findings that telehealth was largely accepted among Medicaid enrollees can help inform policy that shapes its future implementation.
