JAMA Network: Telehealth vs In-Person Early Palliative Care for Patients With Advanced Lung Cancer

In this randomized comparative effectiveness trial, patient-reported quality-of-life scores were equivalent between groups. The delivery of early palliative care virtually vs in person demonstrated equivalent effects on quality of life in patients with advanced on–small cell lung cancer (NSCLC), underscoring the considerable potential for improving access to this evidence-based care model through telehealth delivery.
