Studies have shown that telemedicine could improve the situation in a practical and cost-effective fashion. We aimed to evaluate currently established services as well as any potential need for expansion of telemedicine within correctional settings in Colorado.<\/jats:italic>\n                    <\/jats:p>\n                  <\/jats:sec>\n                  <jats:sec>\n                    <jats:title>Methods:<\/jats:title>\n                    <jats:p>\n                      <jats:italic toggle=\"yes\">We designed a prospective survey-based pilot study using mixed methods research techniques.<\/jats:italic>\n                    <\/jats:p>\n                  <\/jats:sec>\n                  <jats:sec>\n                    <jats:title>Results:<\/jats:title>\n                    <jats:p>\n                      <jats:italic toggle=\"yes\">Colorado has 50 county jails, 19 prisons, and 3 private prison facilities. Of these, 46 correctional facilities (45 jails and the state prison) were contacted. Twenty responded (19 jails and the prison) representing 43.5% response rate. Only 10% did not have on-site health care providers available at all, 31.6% were already using telemedicine for some of their needs, 52.9% were \u201cvery interested,\u201d 5.9% \u201csomewhat interested,\u201d 17.6% \u201cnot so interested,\u201d and 23.5% were \u201cnot at all interested\u201d in further information regarding telemedicine services.<\/jats:italic>\n                    <\/jats:p>\n                  <\/jats:sec>\n                  <jats:sec>\n                    <jats:title>Discussion:<\/jats:title>\n                    <jats:p>\n                      <jats:italic toggle=\"yes\">Our study as well as current literature suggest that telemedicine could serve to fill in certain gaps of care within correctional populations, especially for over-represented conditions (i.e., chronic infectious diseases, such as HIV and hepatitis C virus, substance use disorders, or mental health disorders).<\/jats:italic>\n                    <\/jats:p>\n                  <\/jats:sec>\n                  <jats:sec>\n                    <jats:title>Conclusions:<\/jats:title>\n                    <jats:p>\n                      <jats:italic toggle=\"yes\">There is enthusiasm but also certain amount of skepticism among Colorado's jail administrators with respect to the implementation, or even the cost-effectiveness potential of telemedicine. Telemedicine in these settings may require individualized approach and enough creative flexibility to allow for nimble adjustments based on the constraints and needs of individual institutions.<\/jats:italic>\n                    <\/jats:p>\n                  <\/jats:sec>","DOI":"10.1089\/tmj.2019.0130","type":"journal-article","created":{"date-parts":[[2019,9,5]],"date-time":"2019-09-05T10:05:24Z","timestamp":1567677924000},"page":"776-783","update-policy":"https:\/\/doi.org\/10.1177\/sage-journals-update-policy","source":"Crossref","is-referenced-by-count":3,"title":["Access to Specialty Services: Opportunities for Expansion of Telemedicine to Support Correctional Health Care in Colorado"],"prefix":"10.1177","volume":"26","author":[{"given":"Martin","family":"Krsak","sequence":"first","affiliation":[{"name":"Division of Infectious Diseases, University of Colorado School of Medicine, Aurora, Colorado, USA."}],"role":[{"role":"author","vocabulary":"crossref"}]},{"given":"Alexiss","family":"Jeffers","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Division of Infectious Diseases, University of Colorado School of Medicine, Aurora, Colorado, USA."}],"role":[{"role":"author","vocabulary":"crossref"}]},{"given":"Jagruti","family":"Shah","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Colorado Department of Human Services, Office of Behavioral Health, Denver, Colorado, USA."}],"role":[{"role":"author","vocabulary":"crossref"}]},{"given":"Steven C.","family":"Johnson","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Division of Infectious Diseases, University of Colorado School of Medicine, Aurora, Colorado, USA."}],"role":[{"role":"author","vocabulary":"crossref"}]},{"given":"Brian T.","family":"Montague","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Division of Infectious Diseases, University of Colorado School of Medicine, Aurora, Colorado, USA."}],"role":[{"role":"author","vocabulary":"crossref"}]}],"member":"179","published-online":{"date-parts":[[2020,6,3]]},"reference":[{"key":"e_1_3_4_2_2","unstructured":"World Population Review.
