Background: Few studies have examined patient preferences for telehealth in palliative care after the availability of COVID-19 vaccines. We examined patient preferences for video versus in-person visits and factors contributing to preferences in the post-vaccine era.
Conclusion: Patients expressed strong preference for video over in-person visits in the outpatient palliative care setting.
