McAlearney, A. S., Sieck, C. J., Gregory, M. E., Di Tosto, G., MacEwan, S. R., DePuccio, M. J., Lee, J. A., Huerta, T. R., & Walker, D. M. (2021). Examining Patients' Capacity to Use Patient Portals: Insights for Telehealth. Medical care, 59(12), 1067-1074.

Summary

The study examines factors affecting patients' capacity to use patient portals, a tool used in telehealth. It found that patients with fewer resources, capabilities, willingness, and overall capacity used the portal less, while those with lower perceived self-efficacy used it more. The findings suggest that offering tailored patient training to use telehealth tools may be beneficial in supporting patients' telehealth use, as it provides an initial understanding of factors influencing telehealth use.
