We propose the use of T-HOLA (the word hola means hello in Spanish), an acronym designed to offer practical guidance to providers engaging Latinx patients in telehealth interventions through the application of motivational interviewing skills and consideration of cultural values: (1) orient to Telehealth; (2) engage in T: orient to telehealth An initial step is to provide the patient with an orientation to the telehealth platform. ./cache/cord-334002-irbpehts.txt ./txt/cord-334002-irbpehts.txt
