During a remote appointment that uses video and audio, which term best applies?

• A. Telephone Communication
• B. Patient Interview
• C. Social Determinants of Health
• D. Video Conferencing

Answer: (D)

Video conferencing fits best. It describes live, two-way audiovisual communication between clinician and patient, allowing you to both see and hear each other in real time and observe the home environment and nonverbal cues. This goes beyond audio-only interaction, which would be telephone communication, and it isn’t about the information you gather (patient interview) or broader health context factors (social determinants of health).
