Abstract
Telehealth is a growing approach to medicine that has escalated since the SARS-CoV-2 pandemic. Yet, there is little research into how telehealth-specific contextual factors affect a physician’s diagnostic reasoning and potential error. Emotional regulation will be investigated as a potential intervention for reframing the negative impact of distracting contextual factors.
