This Amazon One Medical lawsuit highlights risks of virtual care. Raises questions about telehealth quality and safety in urgent cases. One Medical is primarily run by NPs and PAs who have little understanding of triaging acuity assessment.

Definitely a component, although I think the telehealth shows that initiative. But definitely lack of education in general and of the condition. Alameda county is Oakland area so education level is much lower. Can attest to it having worked there before, lots of non-english patients so language barrier can be an issue. But once they've made contact with a clinic, its wholly that clinics responsibility at that point.

IMO this is also laziness or lack of education in part of the patient.
Trouble breathing and coughing up blood is an immediate ER or at least Urgent Care visit.

Although I agree that the tele-health person should've told them to end the call and go to Urgent Care / ER instead of "buy an inhaler". But even if they had told them that, they already wasted time going the tele-health route in the first place.

is this less about telehealth and more about the rise of NP/PA stepping into md zone without qualification/training?

Not just telehealth either with overreliance on NPs. You see that in-person now too
