The primary outcome was whether a consult was placed in the VA versus community care neurology (CCN) for outpatient stroke/TIA care. A generalized linear mixed model (GLMM) with binomial distribution and log link fit to the primary outcome was used to estimate the effect of active implementation with baseline serving as the reference.

The primary quality measure is the without-fail rate (WFR), which is a dichotomous outcome of whether a patient passes all process measures (yes/no) for which they are eligible. Conclusions:VA teleneurology care may be a way to improve the timeliness to outpatient stroke care without impacting quality of care for outpatient stroke care.
