description Over the past 2 years, telemedicine has skyrocketed as COVID-19 propelled innovation and implementation at unparalleled rates. Within the UC Davis academic health system, a new paradigm for telemedicine emerged: direct-to-consumer telemedicine. The video-based telemedicine program has become the largest of its kind in California and is staffed by 80 providers (MDs, APPs) across five clinical departments/groups (primary care practice group, family and community medicine department, emergency medicine department, the nursing department, and the physical medicine and rehabilitation department). September 2021 marked the 1-year anniversary of a journey that has opened access, improved coordination, and become a workforce engine for our evolving virtual health infrastructure.
