简要总结
The purpose of this study is to find out if a telemedicine program for older adults in cancer treatment is a practical way to understand and meet these participants' unique needs. Telemedicine is the use of secure video technology on a desktop computer, laptop, smartphone, or tablet to provide and receive healthcare from a distance. The telemedicine program used in this study is called a tele-geriatric oncology program. It involves the participant and a study nurse meeting by videoconferencing during 2-6 telemedicine visits. As part of the program, the participant and the study nurse will discuss the participant's symptoms and aging-related needs.

时间窗: 18 months
We will report the proportion (and CI) of optional telemedicine visits attended by enrolled participants out of the total number of scheduled optional telemedicine encounters. As participants could have multiple scheduled optional appointments and these appointments for the same participant would be correlated, the confidence interval will be calculated based on bootstrapping our original sample.
