BACKGROUND: The use of telehealth and remote exam devices for children with medical complexity (CMC) allows providers to engage with CMC in their home environment and alleviate caregiver burdens with in-person visits. The authors' objective was to increase the percentage of telehealth visits in which a remote exam device was used in a complex care center from 0% to 50% over a six-month period. METHODS: This improvement work targeted a pediatric complex care center. The multidisciplinary quality improvement team developed key drivers to design Plan-Do-Study-Act cycles. Key drivers included access to device, timely identification of patients with devices, ease of connection, strong provider coaching, and caregivers and providers who were knowledgeable and motivated in using the device. Interventions focused on increasing distribution of devices, streamlining the scheduling process, establishing a device registry, education for caregivers and providers on using the device successfully, translating materials into common languages, and providing remote Internet connections. The primary outcome measure was the percentage of telehealth visits completed using the remote exam device. The researchers also tracked the number of devices distributed. The active intervention period was June 2021 to December 2021, with continued data collection through April 2022. RESULTS: The median percentage of telehealth visits using the remote exam device increased from 0% to 43% over the intervention period with non-special cause variation in device utilization in the subsequent four months. The most impactful intervention focused on increasing device distribution. CONCLUSION: Quality improvement methods were used to increase the utilization of an in-home remote exam device for CMC.
