Table 1.

Effect of preference on general indices of care.

Indices of care	Preference group
Indices of care	FTF (n = 14), mean ± SD	TM (n = 6), mean ± SD	TM + NP (n = 16), mean ± SD
PO	14.1 ± 5.1	16.8 ± 2.2	16.3 ± 1.9
PPR	13.8 ± 4.4	17.0 ± 3.0	16.5 ± 3.0
PE	16.4 ± 4.8	22.8 ± 2.7	20.7 ± 3.8

FTF: face-to-face consultation; SD: standard deviation; TM: telemedicine consultation; TM + NP: telemedicine and no preference grouped; PO: Perceived Outcome; PPR: Patient–Physician Relationship; PE: Patient Experience.

This table illustrates the relationship between select patient preferences and indices of care. Significant differences were observed only for the PE index of care between both FTF and TM groups (p = 0.002) and FTF and TM + NP groups (p = 0.012).
