Patients with certain pregnancy complications elected to have more telehealth visits. Patients with private insurance were more likely to have telehealth visits than patients with public insurance. There are benefits for patients with certain pregnancy complications to incorporate telehealth visits in addition to regularly scheduled in-person clinic visits and may be suitable in a post-pandemic setting as well. Further research in this field is needed to better understand the impact of implementing telehealth in high-risk obstetrics patients.
