Telehealth is a growing model of delivering health care. School-based health centers (SBHCs) provide access to health care for youth in schools and increasingly use telehealth in care delivery. This article examines the recent growth of telehealth use in SBHCs, and characteristics of SBHCs using telehealth, including provider types, operational characteristics, and schools and students served. The percentage of SBHCs using telehealth grew from 7% in 2007-2008 to 19% in 2016-2017. Over 1 million students in over 1800 public schools have access to an SBHC using telehealth, which represents 2% of students and nearly 2% of public schools in the United States. These SBHCs are primarily in rural communities and sponsored by hospitals. This growing model presents an opportunity to expand health care access to youth, particularly in underserved areas in the United States and globally. Further research is needed to fully describe how telehealth programs are implemented in school settings and their potential impacts.
远程医疗是一种不断发展的医疗服务模式。校内健康中心（SBHCs）为在校青少年提供医疗服务，并且在医疗服务中越来越多地使用远程医疗。本文探讨了SBHCs中远程医疗使用的近期增长情况，以及使用远程医疗的SBHCs的特点，包括提供者类型、运营特征以及所服务的学校和学生。使用远程医疗的SBHCs的比例从2007 - 2008年的7%增长到2016 - 2017年的19%。超过1800所公立学校的100多万学生能够使用采用远程医疗的SBHCs，这占美国学生总数的2%，占公立学校总数的近2%。这些SBHCs主要位于农村社区，由医院赞助。这种不断发展的模式为扩大青少年的医疗服务可及性提供了机会，尤其是在美国和全球的服务不足地区。需要进一步研究以全面描述远程医疗项目在学校环境中的实施方式及其潜在影响。
