This report summarizes the results of a project that examined how the literature and various stakeholders consider challenges and opportunities for improving diagnosis during telemedicine interactions. Both areas of concern and potential were highlighted to engage researchers, educators, and clinicians in the implementation and use of telediagnosis that is safe and of high-value for patients and families.

Reasoning improvement is a recognized strategy for reducing misdiagnosis. This report describes an educational intervention for use in a variety of care environments that rest on collaboration and teamwork as core tenets to enhance diagnostic reasoning.

The use of telemedicine has expanded during the COVID-19 pandemic into the mental health and diagnostic realms. This session explored how the practice of telediagnosis has emerged and share concerns about its safety and quality. Dr. Mark Graber is a featured speaker.

The processes supporting safe and accurate diagnosis involve many steps that are prone to human error. This collaborative will engage teams to explore test result management and follow-up coordination to improve timeliness, collaboration, and communication to support safe care. The launch of the collaborative has been delayed due to COVID-19.
