Telemedicine is an effective way to provide health services to diabetic patients, so that this motivates researchers to develop this study aims to explore accurate evidence regarding the effect or effectiveness of using telemedicine in type 1 diabetes patients in the COVID-19 era. This study used a systematic review with the Preferred Reporting Items for Systematic Review and Meta-analysis (PRISMA) method without meta-analysis. The articles used in this study were articles in the Scopus, ProQuest, and ScienceDirect databases; search using the keywords “Effectiveness AND Telemedicine OR Telehealth AND Diabetes Type 1 AND COVID-19”.
