Story Behind the Curve
Please see note above about the language change associated with the question starting in the 2021 survey tool. A high percentage of survey respondents indicate that they access care from 1 or more specialists. The percentage increased in 2021 when the wording of the question more logically incorporated video and telephone visits.
