We collected data on patient demographic characteristics, visit characteristics, and six dimensions of high-quality care from the Institute of Medicine\u2019s framework. We conducted bivariate (for the relationships between patient\/visit characteristics and telehealth use) and multivariable modified Poisson regression (for the relationships between modality and multiple quality of care measures), adjusting for patient and visit characteristics (where appropriate).\n                    <\/jats:p>\n                  <\/jats:sec>\n                  <jats:sec>\n                    <jats:title>Results:<\/jats:title>\n                    <jats:p>Patients who preferred Spanish or another language were less likely to have a telehealth visit compared with patients who preferred English (prevalence ratio [PR] = 0.45, 95% confidence interval [CI]: 0.29\u20130.67; PR = 0.26, 95% CI: 0.13\u20130.56, respectively). Patients who had a birth control-only visit were more likely to have a telehealth visit compared with patients who had a visit for birth control and other services (PR = 0.12, 95% CI: 0.05\u20130.25). A higher percentage of telehealth patients choose birth control pills than in-person patients (81% versus 54%; PR = 2.91, 95% CI: 1.81\u20134.70). We found no statistically significant differences in effectiveness, person-centeredness, safety, and equity. Telehealth patients were less likely to have a cycle time (time from appointment check-in to check-out) of \u226560 minutes (adjusted prevalence ration [aPR] = 0.07, 95% CI: 0.04\u20130.14) and a wait time of \u226510 minutes (aPR = 0.18, 95% CI: 0.09\u20130.34) than in-person patients.<\/jats:p>\n                  <\/jats:sec>\n                  <jats:sec>\n                    <jats:title>Conclusion:<\/jats:title>\n                    <jats:p>Our findings suggest that contraceptive care delivered through telehealth provides comparably high quality as in-person care.
