A Stanford research study, The COVID Journey - Persons with Disabilities during the Pandemic: Understanding and Improving Equity in Healthcare through Virtual Health., aims to understand the impact of the COVID-19 pandemic and transition to telehealth on persons with disabilities (PWD) to improve their care. To participate in this study, you do not need to have been infected with COVID-19 but you must be a person with a spinal cord injury, be 18 years or older, had video medical appointments in 2020 or 2021 and can use a smart phone or computer.
