Analyzing the Current Status of the Telemedicine Pilot Project Using Korean National Health Insurance Service Data.
Article in Journal of Korean medical science, 2025. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Not yet cited in PubMed.
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
This study evaluated the performance and status of a telemedicine pilot project implemented in 2023. The analysis used National Health Insurance Service (NHIS) claim data from June 1 to December 14, 2023, focusing on patients who received telemedicine at least once during this period. The findings indicate that 8.5% of healthcare institutions participated in telemedicine, accounting for 0.16% of total health insurance cases. Telemedicine-related costs constituted 0.06% of total health insurance expenditures. Among the diseases where telemedicine was utilized, acute bronchitis was the most common in individuals under 40, while hypertension and type 2 diabetes mellitus increased significantly after age 30. This study is the first study to analyze the possibility and status of current telemedicine in Korea using NHIS data. The findings underscore its potential as an effective tool for managing chronic and acute diseases in Korea's healthcare system while identifying opportunities for further improvement.
