TY - GEN N2 - Perioperative telemedicine use has increased as a result of the COVID-19 pandemic and may improve access to surgical care. However, studies assessing outcomes in populations at risk for digital-health disparities are lacking. We sought to characterize the pre- and post-operative outcomes for rural patient populations being assessed for hernia repair and abdominal wall reconstruction with telehealth.
