Telehealth Follow-up After Surgery

This study is looking at how well telehealth follow-up works for patients after surgery. Telehealth follow-up means you would have your check-ups over the phone instead of in person. Researchers want to see if this approach is safe and effective, and if patients and providers are happy with it. They will measure if any problems are missed within 30 days and how satisfied people are after 6 weeks. You might be able to join if you are an adult having general surgery or cancer-related surgery. The study aims to enroll 3000 participants. The current status of recruitment is unclear.
