Abstract

Highlights: Virtual integrated multidisciplinary healthcare is needed for costly medical conditions. We developed three technology-based psychosocial interventions for neurological illness, critical care conditions, and orthopedic traumas. Our interventions demonstrated feasibility and acceptability using live video formats. Telehealth psychosocial interventions have implications for policy as they may help promote health outcomes and decrease healthcare utilization and costs.
