Show abstract
This statistical brief examines subsequent encounters after a cancellation due to COVID-19 in the Veterans Affairs System. We find that he vast majority of VA patients that had appointments cancelled in mid-March to mid-April of 2020 had another encounter within 180 days. The most common next encounter was a virtual visit with a VA provider on the same day of the original appointment. We also find that patients that saw a provider through VA community care had a lower median time to next encounter.
