dc.description.abstractThe German health care system has to face raising costs, an increase in demand as well as a shortage of staff, making an efficient use of resources as well as the design of innovative services and digital solutions necessary. Even though the digitalization of the health care system is far behind, Germany was the first country to integrate DiGA, a special form of digital health apps, into the health care market. While this is a very promising development, it is still unclear whether patients actually know about these apps and if processes are efficient enough to promise a significant benefit to them. Therefore, we discuss the different stakeholders and performed an online survey with 262 participants from Germany to study the patients's view on DiGA. The results show that their intention to use is high, but many are not aware of the actual DiGA offered.
