Objective
To gain a nuanced understanding of provider perspectives on MOUD care delivery using telemedicine, we conducted semi-structured interviews with VHA providers who were using telehealth to deliver MOUD care.
Findings/Key points
Telehealth provides a context of Veterans’ lives and how their condition is managed at home. Providers experience challenges with telehealth, including managing distractions and establishing rapport. Telehealth visits require providers to place more trust in patients to comply with treatment regimens.
