“When we expand a new health care service, we have to be really careful that the proliferation of novel technologies do not widen inequities.” @JennyGuadamuz on new #telemedicine research from #ASCO22 . fal.cn/3oX4K #ASCODailyNews #healthequity

Flatiron Health @JennyGuadamuz sat down with The ASCO Post & discussed the importance of her research which used one of the largest RWD w/ a telemedicine variable to assess patterns of use among patients with cancer during COVID19, illuminating health inequity bit.ly/3yVVdYC
